What’s happening Now?
Mayo County Council have commissioned engineering design consultants, Barry Transportation, to progress the scheme development. The project is progressing in accordance with the TII Project Manager’s Manual for Greenway Projects and is currently at Phase 1 (Concept and Feasibility) having already successfully passed through Phase 0 (Scope and Pre-Appraisal) in 2023.
As part of Phase 1 (Concept and Feasibility), a Study Area has been identified and the project team are now in the process of identifying constraints that may influence option selection, and any key features or opportunities that would enhance the user experience.
Your Involvement – Public Consultation 1
Mayo County Council is now inviting all interested parties to participate in a non-statutory public consultation on the study area. The purpose of Public Consultation 1 is to bring information to the public on the project and to invite feedback on the current study area, the constraints identified and any other opportunities that the project team should consider. Your participation in this consultation is important and we would value any feedback which you think should be reviewed by the project team to help inform the development of the project.

Next Stages
The feedback and submissions received through this public consultation will be considered by the project team as part of Phase 1 (Concept and Feasibility) and will help to inform the development of the project.
The next stage of the process involves the development of all reasonable options, which will then be subjected to an Options Assessment to identify and determine that there is at least one feasible option. A summary of the Options Assessment and recommended option(s) proposed for advancement to Phase 2 (Options Selection) will be prepared.
In Phase 2, a second period of non-statutory public consultation will be held, where the public will again be invited to make submissions and comment on the Proposed Options prior to a Preferred Option being identified.
