A survey about plans for a new North Down coastal greenway path has indicated locals broadly support proposals, despite opposition from a local group warning about tensions between cyclists and pedestrians as well as loss of trees.
Ards and North Down Council carried out additional public engagement last year after the consultation on plans for a new North Down greenway, by commissioning the company Social Market Research to conduct a survey on public feeling about the Kinnegar to Donaghadee section of the project.
The council states: “The proposed greenway aims to enhance and extend the existing North Down Coastal path and to provide linkage between Holywood and Donaghadee. The maximum width of any part of a new path will be four metres, with most no more than three metres. In many areas the path is already this width. “
