NORE LINEAR PARK IN KILKENNY AUGUST 2018<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n


\n\n\n\n

The upgraded walkway, which cost \u20ac110,000, is a 1.6km stretch along the Nore riverbank from Maudlin Street as far as the new Ossory Bridge, where it links up with the Nore Valley Walk. It features a ramped wooden boardwalk with fencing and handrails, as well as picnic tables and seating along the route.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The unveiling in 2012 of the walk marked the completion of the third phase of the River Nore Linear Park development, which aims to improve riverside amenities and make Kilkenny more accessible by foot.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Phase One of the Linear Park development began in 2006, comprising a 2.5km stretch connecting the weir on Bleach\u2019s Road to the rear of Riverview Drive, north of Green\u2019s Bridge. The second phase began in 2007, with works carried out along Canal Walk to Dukesmeadows.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

An additional bridge crossing at some point along the river is now being mooted, as part of a possible future addition to the park.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Pedestrians can now walk along Lacken walk as far as the ring road, where they can then travel to the Bennettsbridge roundabout, down by the Black Quarry and onto the Canal walk.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The re-developed route is suitable for prams, however the Maudlin Street entrance is accessible by steps only. Lacken Walk is also the only section of Linear Park that is not lit at night.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
