Public consultations on the development of a Greenway project at Barnesmore Gap take place next week Photo: Kate Slevin
The proposed Greenway project between Donegal Town and Ballybofey could be a "game changer" for tourism in the area.
That was the message from Donegal Municipal District cathaoirleach, Cllr Niamh Kennedy this week as she encouraged the public to go along to two public consultation sessions next week and offer their thoughts on the proposed development.
She added the project could be a "game changer" in terms of it being a valuable tourist attraction.
"It is very important people come out to the two public consultations sessions in both towns next Wednesday, February 22 between 12 noon and 8pm in the Abbey Hotel, The Diamond, Donegal Town and again on Thursday, February 23 between the same times in Jackson's Hotel, Glenfin Street, Ballybofey."
Anyone looking for additional project information, or to complete the feedback form online, can visit the dedicated project website at https://barnesmoregapgreenway.ie.
Information will be accessible online from Friday, February 17. Submissions will be accepted until Friday, March 10.
If you cannot attend one of the in-person events and are unable to access the website, you can contact the project team by phone at (074) 97 24500 (9am to 4pm Monday – Friday), by e-mail on design@dnrdo.ie or by post at National Roads Office, Drumlonagher, Donegal Town, Co Donegal
