Dublin City Council (DCC) would like to invite the public to have their say on plans along Chapelizod Road and Conyngham Road.
This new scheme will provide 3.1km of improved walking and cycling facilities along Chapelizod Road and Conyngham Road. It will connect communities along this route, link Chapelizod Village to the city centre via the Liffey Cycle Route, and improve access to amenities such as the Phoenix Park and War Memorial Gardens.
This scheme forms part of Dublin City Council's 314km Active Travel Network. View Full Project Information on DCC's Active Travel Website
