New Street Public Realm header image maroon best

On Tuesday 16 January 2024, Fingal County Council decided to proceed with Public Realm improvements for a Pedestrianised New Street, Malahide. An award winning, multi-disciplinary design team were appointed to carry out this design, which is now complete. 

Maylim has been appointed as contractor to deliver the Public Realm Improvement Works, which commenced on 27 October 2026.

Further updates will be shared on this webpage and via our social media channels as the project progresses.

As part of the project, 11 existing trees will be removed and replaced with 37 new trees, creating a more sustainable and resilient planting scheme that will support healthy tree growth for years to come. Hear from arborist Andy Worsnop in the video below as he explains why revising the planting scheme as part of these works will help improve growing conditions and support sustainable tree growth into the future.
