Irish Rail Commit To Resolving Flooding Issues At South Beach In Greystones

his low lying point is close to the South Beach playground, and experiences regular spot flooding.

Irish Rail is planning to carry out the work at night time. As such access is not expected to be impacted during the work, while it is being carried out. Irish Rail will be installing a new bridge deck, with a concrete structure.

Additionally as part of the drainage work a culvert is expected to be installed, which will significantly improve the issue of surface water.

Irish Rail will also be seeking to make the archway accessible, for easy access to the boardwalk.

Cllr Stephen Stokes added: "The boardwalk is a popular amenity. It has further opened up our seafront to those who are less mobile. This news is a further step forward for the community."
