We talk to the campaigners frustrated by its long closure and find how it has impacted the seaside towns It is one of those late autumn days when the sun shines brightly and all seems well with the world. On this midweek morning, Greystones and its surrounds look resplendent."
"We talk to the campaigners frustrated by its long closure and find how it has impacted the seaside towns It is one of those late autumn days when the sun shines brightly and all seems well with the world. On this midweek morning, Greystones and its surrounds look resplendent. The Wicklow sea is a cobalt blue, the sky is largely cloud-free and the surrounding fields and hills are a riot of autumnal colour."
The coastal path between Bray and Greystones has been closed since February 2021, removing a long-loved recreational route. Generations adored the path, and the extended closure has left campaigners frustrated and communities deprived of regular access. The closure has affected seaside towns through reduced foot traffic, constrained outdoor recreation, and pressures on local businesses and community wellbeing. Greystones remains visually resplendent on bright autumn days: the Wicklow sea appears cobalt blue, the sky is largely cloud-free, surrounding fields and hills display autumnal colour, and temperatures can feel warmer than the thermometer indicates.
