Greenway will open up views rarely seen and give safe access to Dublin Port’s ferry terminal.
Dublin Port’s Tolka Estuary walking and cycling Greenway is now open to the public along the northern perimeter of the port. It opens up a part of Dublin that was previously not accessible to the public, with views of the Clontarf seafront and Bull Island, as well as Howth Head in the distance.
Access to the greenway is via Eastpoint Business Park using its entrance on the Alfie Byrne Road.
The next stage of the project is the walking and cycling route along East Wall Road (Liffey-Tolka route), linking the East Link bridge with this new Tolka Estuary Greenway. This will complete the segregated and safe cycling route from Sutton to the South Docklands.
As well as a fantastic amenity for locals and visitors it provides a safe commuting route allowing people the option of choosing the bike over the car.
Dublin Port described the new greenway as a “celebration of an area of the Port that has never been accessed by the public before, and it is a key element of Dublin Port’s ambitious Tolka-Estuary Project.”
We’d encourage all our readers to try out the new Greenway.
