Upcoming OPR Training Webinar: Athlone Public Realm Improvements

The OPR, as part of its Strategic Research Programme, is looking at public realm improvements in Irish towns and cities to see how the work is being undertaken, what issues are arising and what lessons can be learnt.

The journey begins in Athlone with the impressive town centre public realm improvements recently completed by Westmeath County Council. This training webinar will focus on sharing insights from this project with presentations from Westmeath County Council, delivered by:

• Councillor Vinny McCormack – Mayor of Athlone
• Anne Marie Corroon – Head of Regeneration & Capital Projects
• Cathaldus Hartin – Senior Planner
• Lorraine Middleton – Executive Planner

The presentations will be followed by a Q&A session which will be moderated by John Keating, Senior Planner with the OPR’s Research, Training and Public Awareness team.
