Drogheda Cycling Group launch petition to support dual carriageway proposals

Two weeks ago, the Drogheda Cycling Group introduced exciting proposals for the dual carriageway in Drogheda which has been a safety hazard since it opened in the 1970’s.

Following on from the launch of those proposals which called for the redesign of Drogheda’s dual carriageway to favour active travel options and public transport space, the Drogheda Cycling group has today launched an online petition calling for the speedy implementation of these proposals.

Chairperson Noel Hogan said:

“All across Europe towns like Drogheda are embracing active travel – and seeing the benefits in terms of a healthier population and – most importantly – quicker travel times.

” Children in other countries are being given back the freedom to cycle which, because of traffic congestion, has been denied to the children of Drogheda.

“We are committed to playing our part to make Drogheda a safer, healthier town for everyone and to that end we are calling for people to support our online petition.
