Fingal County Council has commenced a Part 8 procedure to obtain planning approval for the construction of a new pedestrian and cycle bridge over the Dublin to Belfast Railway line at Corballis, Donabate.

It will enhance connections between the development lands at Corballis, Donabate Village, the railway station and Newbridge Demesne.
