The first phase will take a number of weeks to complete.
Two major upgrades to greenway infrastructure in a Westmeath town are underway.
Drilling for a new cycle and foot bridge in Athlone, which will extend onto the Dublin-Galway greenway project is expected to take a couple of weeks to complete.
Westmeath County Council hope to tender the construction of the bridge by the end of the year, with a view to it being open by 2022.
A similar project from the white gates in Athlone to the marina is expected to be completed in 2020.
Director of services Barry Kehoe is happy to see the progression taking place:
