The Chesterfield Avenue Cycle Lane Project involves the upgrade of walking and cycle facilities in the Phoenix Park between Castleknock and Conyngham Road/Parkgate Street. The route is a primary route in the Greater Dublin Regional Cycle Network Plan 2013, forming part of Route 5. The scheme extents cover a distance of 4.22km.
The National Transport Authority have agreed to fund the Chesterfield Avenue Project. Dublin City Council Active Travel Programme Office will provide project management services to deliver the project through the design, planning and construction phases and will work collaboratively with the OPW to design and deliver the project. It is estimated that this project will commence in 2024.
Tender documents for the engagement of a multidisciplinary design team are being finalised by DCC and are due to issue in the coming weeks. DCC is setting up a consultative stakeholder process for the project.
