Bog Connections:  I applaud KCC’s desire to regenerate old routes on water and land for recreational use and as a way to welcome people to the Kildare countryside to visit its attractions.  The ceasing of commercial activities and the re-wetting of the Bogs to reduce carbon emissions, is great for our planet.  There is also be an opportunity to improve people’s health by providing places for outdoor activities and eco-friendly small homes on the waterways. 

Creating moorings on the canal and safe connections across the bogs at Lullymore/Lodge, would encourage people walking, cycling and boating to visit the Lullymore Centre. 

Moorings and facilities on the Barrow Line at Ummeras, north of Monasterevin, would encourage people to visit Ummeras Park and provide a site for tourists and eco-friendly small homes.

Ticknevin as a boating destination would encourage to stay and enjoy the rural setting and visit the nearby town of Edenderry.
