New road layout for school runs in Ferrybank this week

The Abbey Park road has been closed since the end of July for upgrade works as part of the North Quays project

BAM, the main contractor on the North Quay Project had sought a two-week addition in Ferrybank to allow time for a deep foul sewer, new retaining wall and finishing works to be completed

A new road layout came into effect this morning as school runs began to Our Lady of Good Council National School and Abbey Community College

Current access arrangements are as follows

Pedestrian access will continue to be available from Fountain Street and Abbey Road to both Our Lady of Good Council National School and Abbey Community College. Vehicular access to school drop-off facilities is available from Fountain Street only, until Abbey Road is reopened from the 29th August 2024.

The current vehicular layout is illustrated below. .

Please follow the road and pedestrian signage that is in situ and traffic management attendants will be available to assist during busy school drop-off and collection times
