Highly anticipated work is set to begin today (Sat) on a walkway from Donegal Town to Killymard Church and school.
The project is being carried out under the Community Improvement Scheme (CIS) in conjunction with Killymard Old Church Restoration Committee and Donegal County Council.
It is understood that members from the committee will take charge of major clearance work on the site before Donegal Council’s road crew put the walkway in place over an eight-week period.
A spokesperson for the Killymard Old Church Restoration Committee said: “We are delighted to announce that work will begin on the walkway from Donegal Town to Killymard Church and School on Saturday.”
“Of course this will mean that there are some disruptions but I’m sure you will all agree that this is a much-needed walkway that will allow safer use of this very busy road for pedestrians.
“We suggest that you allow extra time for your journeys if using this road, or consider alternative routes.
“Thank you for your co-operation.”
