Donegal County Council and Derry City and Strabane District Council have announced consultation events for Route 1 of the Donegal-L'Derry greenway project.
When complete, the €18 million project will connect both counties with a 46.5km cross-border greenway.
Following successful consultations for the L'Derry-Muff section, the councils have outlined two dates to discuss the proposed L'Derry to Buncrana section (Route 1).
The consultation events will take place on Tuesday 26 June in the Lough Swilly Yacht Club, Station Road, Fahan, and on Wednesday 27 June in Templemore Sports Complex, Buncrana Road, Derry. Both events will run from 2pm to 8pm each day.
Ronan Gallagher, Communications Manager for the North West Greenway Network said: "Almost 300 people attended last month's consultation events in Culmore and Muff and the feedback was fantastic. Everyone we spoke to wants to see these routes developed.
"We're hoping more people will attend the events in Fahan and Derry as this section of the project is by far the largest stretch of greenway to be developed."
Programme manager, Jonathan Henderson added: "The public consultation events provide a fantastic opportunity for people to learn more about the overall project and to input into the route selection process. We would strongly encourage everybody to get involved, particularly those who live in Buncrana, Fahan, Tooban, Burnfoot, Bridgend, Newtowncunningham and L'Derry, and feed into the process as much as possible and contribute to shaping development in their region."
