Councillors were told the greenway would serve cyclists, pedestrians and 'wheelers' – people who used wheelchairs, buggies and other forms of personal mobility. Two sections of a planned greenway linking Cornelscourt to Cherrywood in south Co Dublin have been dropped by Dún Laoghaire-Rathdown County Council. The €3.7 million project initially envisaged a 2.3km Cabinteely greenway, in four sections from Cornelscourt village to Cherrywood. Residents of The Park housing estate had questioned whether it was a good idea to bring many more people into their quiet residential area. Cllr Tom Kivlehan (Green Party) said he was surprised by the concerns raised by residents in the Glen area of The Park housing estate.
