Just over €740,000 is coming the way of our county councils for upgrade works on rural roads and laneways.
€11million in total has been allocated by Minister Heather Humphreys this morning under the Local Improvement Scheme (LIS).
Carlow is getting €351,880 and €390,790 is coming the way of Kilkenny.
The local authorities will be responsible for identifying and prioritising the routes that need work under the scheme.
