The popular riverside walkway has been closed to walkers and cyclists at Fort George to facilitate work on the new £2m Pennyburn bridge.

FP McCann. is currently developing Derry City and Strabane District Council’s £2m new bridge and greenway link to the Bay Road Park.

The riverside path remains accessible as far as the dock below Fort George but has been fenced off at the Pennyburn.

FP McCann Ltd. was appointed by DC&SDC in May to deliver the new 63m, single span foot and cycle bridge.
