Works are scheduled to begin on the new 5km Bundoran to Ballyshannon Active Travel Project. The project shall provide a continuous walking and cycling link between the urban environs of Bundoran and Ballyshannon along the R267 Finner Road. 

The urban area of the scheme shall include a segregated walkway and cycleway along the northern side of the carriageway extending for 1.6km. The rural section of the project shall include a shared 3m wide walking and cycling route along the northern side of the carriageway extending for 3.4km. The works will span the Finner Road from the Finner Road Roundabout at Bundoran to the Allingham Bridge on Assaroe Road.
