The £549,000 investment in the Waterside area of Londonderry is being funded by the Department for Communities and Derry City and Strabane District Council to significantly enhance the existing park provision.

The Greenway project will complement the new Clooney Greenway and create a sustainable travel corridor in the heart of the Waterside. New pathway links and crossing points will be constructed at Rossmore Road, Rossdale Road and Rossdowney Road to Woodburn Urban Park.
