Maryborough Woods Active Travel Improvement Works

Planning/Design Phase

Works Extent

It is proposed to provide segregated cycle lanes on both sides of the main distributor road through Maryborough Woods.  These cycle lanes will provide a safe route for cyclists through the estate from Maryborough Hill to the Carrigaline Road.

Objectives

  • Provision of approximately 2.1km of segregated cycle lanes along the main distributor road through the estate.  Approximately 1.9km of which is to be raised and separated from road traffic while the remainder will be along the road carriageway.
  • Modification to kerbs and road widths to accommodate proposed cycling infrastructure.
  • Junctions are to be raised to provide suitable crossing points for both pedestrians and cyclists while also slowing vehicles for added safety.
  • New road marking and signage.
  • Other necessary associated works.
