NUIG EMBARKS ON AMBITIOUS PLAN TO IMPROVE TRAFFIC

Date Published: 22-Jun-2012

NUI Galway is embarking on a major construction scheme to improve pedestrian, cycle and vehicle linkage between the campus and the Quincentenary bridge.

The existing underpass, built in the 1980s, is considered inadequate for its student population

The University has applied for approval to build a new vehicle underpass under the N6 road, and the realignment of the approach road or path network.

The works will also involvo the provision of a riverside walkway as part of the city’s greenways initiative.
