Master Plans for two vital areas within the Celbridge Leixlip Municipal District - Ardclough and Leixlip Town - were published today.
The plans, funded by the Department of Rural and Community Development under the 2019 Town and Village Renewal Scheme, aim to chart a sustainable course for the future development of these locales.
Ardclough Rural Settlement Renewal Master Plan
The Ardclough Rural Settlement Renewal Master Plan targets the enhancement of the area's appeal, aiming to bolster its sustainability as a residential and commercial hub.
Central to the plan is the augmentation of Ardclough's environment, amenities, and biodiversity for the benefit of residents, businesses, and visitors alike. The plan underscores the promotion of tourism potential and the preservation of local culture and heritage to fortify the area's identity.
Key objectives outlined in the plan include the revitalisation of green spaces along the main road; improvements to pedestrian amenities; the creation of a more cohesive streetscape; and measures to enhance safety and connectivity, notably at Henry Bridge and the Grand Canal towpath.
