The Avondhu / Blackwater Partnership CLG worked with two organizations to implement the project in collaboration with the West Cork Regional Community Development Committee of the Cork County Council.
Cllr Danny Collins cut the ribbon on the new amenity and said: “This is a great example of what local groups can work together to achieve.
“Suitable for everyone, such as pushing buggies, training for running, going out for walks, etc. I was excited to see the sidewalks widely used by people of all ages. I am.
“It will be added to the green infrastructure of the Twin Villages, taking people out of the car and giving them new opportunities for outdoor recreation.”
