Carlingford Lough Greenway partially closed due to debris

Louth County Council attributed the closure to bad weather which caused rock armour displacement and debris collapse at several locations

Carlingford Lough Greenway is partially closed as a result of bad weather. 

Louth County Council said the recent spell of bad weather caused rock armour displacement and debris collapse at several locations along the Marina side, resulting in damage to the adjoining path and fenceline.

Temporary safety measures have been put in place. Access from the Marina in Carlingford is fully closed. The Greenway remains open from the Omeath side but will terminate approximately 100 metres before the Marina.

Members of the public have been asked to avoid the affected area, follow all safety signage and barriers and exercise caution when using the remainder of the Greenway

The impacted section will remain temporarily closed while structural assessments are carried out over the coming days.

Louth County Council apologised for the inconvenience and thanked users for their cooperation.
