greenway cycle to make an official greenway for Dublin, leave 6.30, cycle should take about 2 hours

international velo-city conference and european greenway conference happening in town. May 31st- June 3rd 2005.

Opportune time to start the wheels turning in development of the botanic spine, an 18km greenway and ecological corridor for dublin city.

The first Dublin City Greenway Cycle will pedal off from Mayor Square in the IFSC at 6.30.
We are planning a discssion forum beforehand in the community centre or the park in sheriff street (to be confirmed).
We will travel clockwise, heading from the square to the east link bridge as the green foot bridge is not yet built.

the aim of the cycle is to highlight the fact that we nearly have this greenway in its entirity, all is needed is a little commitment and spending from the government to make it a reality

if the spine happens it will link up the cities rivers, canals, parks, neighbourhoods new metro. It would make Dublin a leading world model in healthy, sustainable city development
