Cyclists on Greenway a danger to pedestriansTHE Passage West to Rochestown Greenway has “accidents waiting to happen” according to councillors, who claimed cyclists have collided with pedestrians in recent weeks. However, councillors have complained cyclists are travelling too fast, causing a hazard for pedestrians. Councillor Seamus McGrath (FF) said the pathway is too narrow to facilitate pedestrians and cyclists and should be at least four metres in width. Michael ‘Frick’ Murphy (SF) said are more accidents waiting to happen with cyclists “flying” through the route and road markings should be considered instead of signage. The council will now consider solutions to the issues being experienced by greenway users.
