Laois locals invited to consultation on cycling and pedestrian scheme


Public consultation to take place on proposed pedestrian and cycling scheme
Laois locals are invited to attend a public consultation meeting on a proposed pedestrian and cycling scheme.
Laois County Council, in conjunction with Carlow County Council, are inviting residents, businesses, commuters and all interested parties to attend a public consultation event on the proposed Church Street Pedestrian and Cycle Scheme in Graiguecullen.


The works will consist of the construction of new and upgraded cycle infrastructure at Church Street, Graiguecullen.
The route is approx. 750m long, commencing at the Barrowvale Housing Estate in County Laois and proceeding along Church Street serving Oakley Park, St. Fiacc’s National School (rear entrance) and Governey Park before extending to Sleaty Street and the entrance to Carlow Town Park.
The scheme also incorporates Safe Routes To School (SRTS) elements at the rear entrance to St. Fiacc’s National School.
The proposed scheme will provide new and upgraded pedestrian and cycling infrastructure along Church Street, improving access to local schools, housing estates, recreational amenities and businesses.
Taking place on Friday June 26 from 3pm to 7pm in St Fiacc’s Hall, locals are invited to partake in this opportunity to meet the project team, view the plans and discuss any queries or concerns you may have about the proposed development.
