Ireland – Real estate services – Barrow Corridor Tourism Masterplan

Waterways Ireland, in association with Fáilte Ireland is seeking to commission a pioneering and transformational Tourism Masterplan for a development corridor traversing the Grand Canal Barrow Line and Barrow Navigation. The overall objective of the Masterplan is to inform strategic planning decisions that will enable sustainable development of the Barrow Corridor and increase its appeal to both Domestic and International audiences, enabling it to become a key tourism destination. While the Masterplan is being commissioned through the lens of Tourism destination development, it is intended that local communities as well as visitors will benefit from the resulting recreational infrastructure and experience development investments. Since 2019, Fáilte Ireland and Waterways Ireland have collaborated through a Strategic Partnership to enhance the cultural, environmental, economic, and tourism landscape of rural and urban Ireland. This alliance has brought together two entities with a shared aspiration to create sustainable development tourism opportunities, each with a unique set of expertise and resources. Through the Partnership, the Partners work to provide increased and enhanced public infrastructure and experiences for visitors throughout the inland waterways.
