Wexford County Council is developing a new scheme to improve road safety and enhance walking and cycling routes along Beechlawn and Clonard Avenue in Wexford Town.
The proposed scheme will comprise of the formalisation of pedestrian linkages and the provision of cycling and pedestrian infrastructure.
The scheme, funded by the National Transport Authority, will also include a number of pedestrian crossings and traffic calming measures.
The proposed scheme is approximately 1.7km in length and will connect with the Newtown Road Active Travel Scheme.
This pedestrian and cycle route will form a spine across the west side of Wexford Town and provide links to a number of schools in the area. It will also serve one of the main residential areas in the town.
In advance of the submission of a Part VIII Planning Application, a drop-in information session will take place on Thursday, November 6th in County Hall, Carricklawn between 3pm and 7pm.
The proposed drawings will be on display and staff will be on hand to explain the design and answer any queries.
