J1020 : Walkway across the inner lock gate at Victoria Lock

taken 6 years ago, 3 km from Burren, Co Down, Northern Ireland

Walkway across the inner lock gate at Victoria Lock

The walkway across the canal provides access between the Fathom Line road (also known as the Omeath Road) and the Newry Greenway which now links Victoria Locks with the Albert Basin.

Newry Greenway

The embankment separating the Newry Ship Canal and the Newry River known as the Middlebank has been adapted to provide an extension link to the 30kms Newry Canal Trail from Portadown to Newry. It runs between Newry's Albert Basin and the Victoria Lock - a distance of 5.7 kms. Eventually, it will be extended across the Border to link with the existing Omeath - Carlingford Greenway thus providing a motor vehicle free walking and cycling corridor from Portadown to Carlingford.
