Today, Monday 20th July 2020, the new look Walks were opened, with a ribbon cutting ceremony carried out by John Cahill on behalf of Edgeworthstown Tidy Towns and Edgeworthstown Community. It has been dramatically changed from where it was last January. We’d like to thank the HSE, Longford County Council and all who helped get this project completed. We are hoping this will a foundation for a future project to extend this walk/cycle path through a number of housing estates, reducing traffic around the school and providing an amenity for the local community.

The great thing about volunteering with Tidy Towns is that you can choose a time or task which suits you best. Here we have CiarĂ¡n MacGonigal who has been looking after our various rose plants and beds over the last two seasons. Thanks CiarĂ¡n.

The hard top has been applied to the walks, adding a nice finish and looks very well. Work remaining to be done , tarmac the cycle track outside St Christopher’s and St Mary’s. Erect bollards and road markings showing cycle track. This work will be completed in the next couple of weeks.

One constant complaint we hear from walkers and runners is the hazard of dog-poo on the paths and streets of the town. With this in mind we have spoken to the litter warden. Litter warden has relocated the dog poo bag dispenser on the bypass so its there free of people to use. Keep our streets cleanSection 22 of the Litter Pollution Act 1997 makes it an offence for the person in charge of a dog not to clean up when their dog fouls in a public place.
Failure to clean up your dog’s waste can lead to a €150 on-the-spot fine or on summary conviction to a fine of up to €4,000. More information is available here.https://www.gov.ie/en/policy-information/1e785c-dog-control/#dog-fouling
