Boyne Blueway – Notice of Question

6.1 Submitted by Councillor Trevor Golden

“What is the latest update on the implementation of the Boyne Blueway?”

Response:
Under the 2018 Outdoor Recreation Infrastructure Scheme, funding was approved of €35,520 for the Trim Blueway. Work has now been completed on the Boyne Blueway Trim brochure with the mapboards expected to be completed this month. A new page for the Blueway will also be created on the discoverboynevalley.ie website. A recent information seminar took place on attaining accreditation for Blueways, it is intended to develop a program of work to address any issues with the intention of applying for accreditation for the Trim Blueway.
