IWMG Commemorative Bridge project April 2026 update

To whom it may concern,

Southside / Irish National War Memorial Gardens side. The foul sewer has been diverted, and the four CFA piles have been installed on Gridline 70. The base and wingwalls of the southside landscape structure has been completed. The footpath along the riverbank on the southern side will remain temporarily closed to facilitate the concrete works on Gridline 70 (closest abutment to the river) until they have been completed and backfilled.

On the northern side, the concrete foundation at Gridline 30 has been constructed and works were completed for the 600t crawler crane that is required to install the bridge. Works continue with the landscape wingwalls

Upcoming works on the Northern side include the commencement of the roadworks on Chapelizod Road. This includes the construction of a new entrance, footpath modifications and a new pedestrian crossing.
