Ballybane Road and Castlepark Road Cycle Network Scheme will provide an attractive cycle route along both Ballybane Road and Castlepark Road, as well as upgraded pedestrian facilities and safety improvement measures.
The development will consist of:
– New protected cycle tracks and footpaths on both sides of Ballybane Road and Castlepark Road.
– Reducing road carriageway widths (typically 3m wide lanes).
– Junction realignments and the introduction of raised crossings on all side roads to prioritise walkers and wheelers.
– Straight through cycle lane/track crossings on all side road junctions to prioritise cyclists’ movements.
– New signalised crossings for pedestrians and cyclists.
– Upgrading of the R865 Ballybane Road / L5029 Castlepark Road junction and L5029 Castlepark Road / R339 Monivea Road junction to signalised junctions with provision for pedestrians and cyclists.
– The introduction of pedestrian and shared crossing points at several locations.
– Upgraded bus stop facilities.
– Landscaping works along the routes.
