Tolka Estuary Greenway: A new Dublin Bay cycle route, which will provide cyclists with safe, segregated access to ferry terminals and port facilities for the first time, has opened in Dublin Port.
The almost-2km route will take cyclists and pedestrians from the northern edge of the port lands at the East Point Business Park, along the perimeter of the bay opposite the Clontarf promenade.
The route, which Dublin Port Company is calling the Tolka Estuary Greenway, is the first phase of a €25 million project to open the port lands to the public and provide more than 16km of cycle paths through Dublin Port, to ferry terminals and industrial facilities.
The port routes will bridge a major gap in the provision of coastal cycling infrastructure across Dublin Bay, and will provide a starting point for the national Dublin to Galway cycleway.
