Ballyclare Greenway Takes Shape

Work is continuing to take shape for a new upgraded shared use path as part of the Ballyclare Greenway.

The first phase of the Greenway will see new 3m wide paths improve access from the residential areas to the town's key services, green spaces and leisure facilities including Sixmilewater Park and Sixmile Leisure Centre. Works on this phase will be complete in late summer.


This project is being funded by Department for Infrastructure (DFI) and DAERA's Environment Challenge Fund.

The Mayor of Antrim and Newtownabbey Borough Council, Councillor Billy Webb visited the trail along with pupils from Ballyclare Primary School.

"This new greenway in Ballyclare is an exciting development for the local community, it offers pupils from the local schools a safe route to cycle and walk to and from school," said Mayor Webb. "It will make a huge difference to the daily lives of the local people, allowing them to walk or cycle and get around the town much easier."
