TOBIN Consulting Engineers are delighted to have been recently appointed to support Galway City Council in the development of the Safe Routes to School programme for our city’s schools.
Initially, we will be supporting Galway City Council and working with Key Stakeholders in the delivery of services associated with the following schools:
- Radharc na Mara (Formerly Holy Trinity Schools), Walter Macken Road and St. James Road, Mervue,
- Scoil Bhríde, Shantalla Road,
- St Joseph’s, Newcastle,
- Galway Educate together, Newcastle
- Scoil Iognáid, Raleigh Row
The Department of Transport through the National Transport Authority is providing funding for the Green-Schools ‘Safe Routes to Schools’ Programme and this initiative is building on the excellent collaborative work, completed to date between Galway City Council and key stakeholders on the School Streets project.
Our lead Design Team Members who recently completed CPD training on the updated Safe Routes to School’s Design Guide 2021, as part of the Active Travel Series facilitated by Engineers Ireland are delighted to be working on such an exciting project within our own city.
TOBIN and Galway City Council will be delivering this project guided by the newly developed Safe Route to School’s Design Guide 2021.
