Route Development Process

A contractor will be appointed to this project in June 2023 and following their appointment they will produce a schedule of works which will be shared here.

The Harry Reynolds Pedestrian and Cycle Route seeks to improve connectivity within the town of Balbriggan and to serve its growing population with a healthy, climate friendly alternative way to travel locally.

It will link to a number of schools and key attractions in the area and provide a real alternative to travel by car in the busy town.
