Following on from the recent Rush to Lusk Cycle Route Feasibility Study, Cllr O’Donoghue has called for the fast tracking of the of the implementation of the Study’s findings to connect Lusk to the train station. Fingal County Council’s (FCC) overall objective is to deliver a high-quality, safe and attractive pedestrian/cycle network within and between the towns of Rush and Lusk, and improve connectivity to the local Rush/Lusk train station and to a number of schools and tourist attractions in the area. Councillor O’Donoghue stated ‘The pathway from Lusk to the station is narrow and dangerous. The berm periodically encroaches on the path making space for pedestrians even more narrow. Many Lusk residents cycle and walk from the town to the station, the current road and footpath make it difficult to make for this journey to be made safely. I am calling for the expedition of plans for the construction of the proposed cycle track and walkway from Lusk to the Station, which will also link the town to Rogerstown Park and the proposed Fingal Coastal Way.’ He continued, ‘In the larger picture, this will also take cars off the road, reducing carbon emissions and traffic congestion on the Station Road, encourage fitness and active living while also making commuting to the station safer for cyclists and walkers. I am confident that there will be good news in the near future regarding the installation of this key piece of infrastructure between Lusk and the train station.’
