Construction has got underway on the second phase of Tully Park in County Dublin.

When complete, the flagship park will respect the character and setting of Tully Church, a protected structure. Located in the new emerging town of Cherrywood, it will support the communities to enable residents, workers and visitors to enjoy a high quality, inclusive environment with good leisure and recreation amenities and connections. It will also form part of Dún Laoghaire-Rathdown County Council's expanding Greenway connections.

An Cathaoirleach Lettie McCarthy, Interim Chief Executive Tom McHugh, Director of Services Anne Devine and Sarah McCullough, Project Manager – Landscape were on hand with Niall McElwaine from Clonmel Enterprises yesterday, Wednesday 22 September, to mark the launch of the construction of Tully Park Phase 2 within the Cherrywood Strategic Development Zone (SDZ). Tully Park Phase 2 is one of the projects that has received funding under the Government's Urban Regeneration and Development Fund (URDF) under Project Ireland 2040.

Speaking at the launch, An Cathaoirleach commented: "I am delighted to be here at Tully Park, which upon completion will be a new flagship park for the new communities of Cherrywood in Dún Laoghaire-Rathdown. It will be a great amenity for all the residents of Cherrywood and the wider areas to walk and cycle to and enjoy with their families over the coming years in a unique and historical setting."

The works are being carried out on behalf of Dún Laoghaire-Rathdown County Council by Clonmel Enterprises Ltd. It is envisaged that works will be completed in early 2022.
