Nine million euro in funding’s been announced for road improvements across the Callan / Thomastown municipal district.
Councillors were told at yesterday’s area meeting that an investment of three million a year for the next three years has been confirmed.
Cllr Peter Chap Cleere says this is a very important announcement in terms of local road safety and called the allocation ‘fantastic’, also saying “Thomastown’s got significant funding over the last number of years and there’s a lot more to come and the great news with the latest announcement is that while Thomastown is getting huge funding so too is the rest of the municipal district; Graignamanagh, Skeoughvosteen, Dungarvan, so many areas that are getting huge funding so it’s exciting news, it’s a great day, any day you get a three million euro plan investment into your road network can only but be a good thing”.
