A portion of the viaduct/town centre route.

Proposed west Mayo town greenway plans on public display

THE proposed route for the off-road greenway through Newport town centre is now on display.

Members of the public are invited to view the proposals and make submissions before August 7.

The proposed route will commence just before the tennis court on the Westport Road and will exit at the bottom of George's Street, connecting with the soon to commence new road/greenway between Newport town and Derrada.

Councillor Peter Flynn has extended thanks to the landowners along the proposed route, local community leaders who facilitated discussions with various parties, and the council/TII project team who worked with all of the stakeholders to ensure the route won't now have to interact with the busy N59.
