Greyabbey Car Park Improvements
£94,328 : Funded by Department of Agriculture, Environment & Rural Affairs, European Union, Ards and North Down Borough Council
The current village plan for Greyabbey included the development of the Lough Shore Car Park as one of its priority projects, to help encourage more residents and visitors to park at the site and explore the surrounding landscape, alleviating parking in the Village.
Improvements included in the application to the Village Renewal Scheme were for the enlargement of the site, resurfacing and reorganising spaces and included the following:
- Surfacing of the car park and marking out of all spaces (38no. spaces)
- The addition of coach parking (2no. spaces)
- Provision of disabled parking spaces (3no. spaces)
- Provision of 4no. picnic benches, 2no. seats and 2no. litter bins
- 2no. directional signage panels
- 3no. interpretive signage panels
- The provision of an oil separator.
Lack of car parking was a major concern identified as part of the village plan consultation, so this project has helped to improve the parking provision for those wanting to shop and spend time in Greyabbey.
