The Council are progressing the identified public realm projects in the plan and are now seeking more detailed input from the people of Balbriggan on the town’s streets, squares and parks which are part of these projects and how these spaces can work together to deliver high quality public space for the people of Balbriggan.
For this reason the Council has engaged Paul Hogarth & Company as a masterplanning consultant to make sure that all the projects work in concert together and to give detailed guidance to all the individual project teams on matters like signage, accessibility and the use of lighting and planting to improve public spaces.
As part of this work these consultants will be engaging with the people of Balbriggan over the summer months to get a more in-depth view of what a good public space means to you.
This engagement is starting with a public survey

This will lead to the development of a Public Realm Strategy for Balbriggan which will be a guidance document for the different project teams working on the town’s regeneration and will help ensure that all the project teams are working together within a guiding framework.
