A walk from Ballyshannon to Calverstown will take place on Friday 10 December to highlight the need for a footpath between the adjoining communities, writes Brian Byrne.

The walk is being organised by the Calverstown Action Network, and begins at 10am. CAN is actively seeking the construction of a footpath and would appreciate all support at the event.

The 2.6km route takes around half an hour, but without a footpath it is considered a dangerous undertaking. From the junction with the R418 at Dowling's Pub is 1.4km.

The section from Dowling's Pub to Ballyshannon itself is threatened with very heavy truck traffic if the ABP decision to allow a quarry to be developed at Racefield is upheld.
