Riverine 2018

Closed

The 'Riverine Community Park' project aims to address the impact of he conflict in the Lifford and Strabane area, and its hinterlands, by regenerating the border riverside area to create iconic cross border community park straddling the River Foyle as a Shared space to bring communities together from both sides of the border to re-connect and form new, long lasting connections and relationships. The Riverine Community Park project proposes to create thirty acres of new community park space and infrastructure at Lifford and Strabane. It proposes to create a neutral, shared space by utilising agricultural land lying along either side of the border. It will span both sides of the River Foyle and be connected by a new pedestrian and cycle bridge. The Councils propose that this diversity of the offering will make for a more inclusive and sharing experinece. Partners: Donegal County Council and Derry and Strabane District Council
