Dublin Road and Botanic Ave Pedestrian and Cycling Improvements

Overview

The Department for Infrastructure is proposing enhanced active travel
infrastructure to improve the connectivity for cyclists, pedestrians and

Belfast Cycling Network Delivery Plan.

Key features include:
• Dedicated 3m wide cycle track
• Enhanced pedestrian footway and improved controlled crossing facilities.
