Galway City Council’s first-ever rain gardens are in full bloom and bringing a fresh splash of colour to the city. As part of the recently completed Crescent/Sea Road Junction Upgrade, which was delivered by the Council’s Active Travel Department, two new rain gardens have been installed, along with a suite of safety improvements for all road users.
Galway’s iconic pedestrian and cycle bridge, Droichead an Dóchais, has been shortlisted for a prestigious award which recognises outstanding architecture that resonates with the public.
Minister of State at the Department of Transport, Seán Canney, has officially opened the Parkmore Road Bus Priority Scheme which has facilitated the expansion of the Bus Éireann operated bus route into Parkmore Business Park West.
Galway City Council is pleased to provide an early Christmas present to workers and residents in Parkmore with confirmation that works on the Parkmore Bus Priority Project have been completed ahead of schedule. It had been expected that construction works would continue into the first months of 2025, but works are now substantially complete in advance of the Christmas period.
