Shanganagh Park Phase 1

Dún Laoghaire Rathdown County Council are seeking to upgrade Shanganagh Park to support the diverse uses of the space by the community, while also ensuring this important resource continues to serve a growing local population into the future.

Works commenced in August 2025 - for completion in August 2026, and are well underway to deliver the Shanganagh Phase 1 project to upgrade and consolidate the sports facilities in Shanganagh Park.  This project will provide, a full-sized GAA pitch, a shared cricket and baseball space, a 100m sprint track, improved access over the DART line, a calisthenics area, 3V3 basketball,  and agility play, while protecting the existing meadows, and enhancing the biodiversity of the site. 

Currently we are focused on the works to improve the access over the railway bridge and upgrade the path network in this corner of the park.  

Path Closures will be necessary to undertake these works.  This will start after Easter, with the closure of the path over the railway bridge on Wednesday (08/04/26).  

The following week (15/04/26) we will have to close the main path that crosses through the site.  

We apologise for the inconvenience, and we will endeavour to undertake the works as efficiently as possible.
