Tullow Street in Carlow Town is set to be pedestrianised for upcoming months
Carlow Town's busiest street is set to be pedestrianised for the remainder of August and September, every Saturday.
From the Carlow County Council Community Information Facebook Page:
"Take a walk down your local Lower Tullow Street this Saturday!
Lower Tullow Street, renowned for its array of family-owned shops and eateries, will be pedestrianised every Saturday from 11 AM to 5 PM throughout August and September. This transformation will create a bustling hub for outdoor dining, leisurely shopping, and vibrant hospitality. Lower Tullow Street has played a pivotal role in the history and development of Carlow town and county since 1824.
In addition to the pedestrian-friendly Saturdays, Carlow Town offers over 2,000 parking spaces, making it convenient for everyone to visit and enjoy the local shops and restaurants. The combination of ample parking and a walkable, enjoyable shopping district aims to attract more visitors and residents to the heart of Carlow."
Cllr. Fergal Browne, Cathaoirleach of Carlow County Council, highlighted the benefits of the pedestrianisation initiative: "Transforming Lower Tullow Street into a pedestrian-friendly zone every Saturday is a fantastic opportunity for families and individuals to enjoy a relaxed shopping and dining experience. This initiative makes our town centre more accessible and inviting, encouraging people to explore and support local businesses."
