Cork City Council's Decision To Route Proposed Lee2Sea Greenway Along Rochestown Road Angers Residents

Some locals wanted the route to run alongside the Douglas Estuary rather that along the road, which they believe poses a safety risk to walkers and cyclists using the Greenway

Other residents, whose gardens back onto the estuary opposed the estuary-bank route.

Cork Harbour is a Special Protection Area under EU Directives, and this was given as part of the reason the route was rejected by the council.
