The Dundrum Local Electoral Area will see an improvement in urban mobility with the announcement of €3.4m in funding for walking and cycling projects.
Projects in Clonskeagh, Dundrum, Ballinteer, Churchtown and cross county projects that pass through Nutgrove and Balally are included in the 2024 allocation of funding to Dún Laoghaire Rathdown County Council from the National Transport Authority.
This funding will be used to cover the cost of planning and delivery of new walking and cycling projects that will include wider footpaths, new and safer crossings on roads, segregated cycle lanes and safe routes to school.
We are seeing the impact of the continued and substantial investment by the Green Party in government in our area, where we are delivering large and small scale projects that are transforming where we live, making it more attractive, safer and healthier.
Many of the most attractive cities and towns in the world are the ones that prioritise walking, cycling and sustainable transport, and we are continuing to make enhancments to our area's status as a great place to live, work and visit.
