15-Minute Westport

For a healthy & sustainable town.

VISION

We want to future-proof Westport as a healthy, sustainable and vibrant place to live.

We are a local community group applying the 15-Minute City concept of liveability to a rural Irish town.

 

The core idea behind 15-Minute Westport is that everyone's daily needs - such as work, education, health and leisure - should be within a 15-minute walk or cycle of their home.

PROJECTS

We've got lots of ideas for Westport! 

LIVEABLE STREETS

Our streets should be vibrant spaces which enhance our daily lives. They should be welcoming, safe, family-friendly places where people of all ages and abilities feel comfortable spending time in.

SAFE CYCLE NETWORK

While Westport is a popular cycling destination, the town centre lacks a network of safe cycle routes which would enable people to cycle for daily trips to work, school, shops and local services. 

ENERGY MASTER PLAN

As an SEAI Sustainable Energy Community, we've worked with consultants to create an Energy Master Plan for Westport which would enable our community to save energy and reduce our emissions.
