Western Way, South West Mayo Development Company: Replacement of damaged wooden bridge with galvanised version – €10,000
Minister for Rural and Community Development, Heather Humphreys TD, has announced the upgrade of 43 walking and hiking trails across Rural Ireland.
The funding will improve trail surfaces, drainage, waymarking and signage, enhancing these trails and the surrounding countryside.
It will also provide seating, picnic and recreation areas, and reroute some trails which will enhance the experience of those using them.
These projects are being delivered in partnership with landowners, Local Development Companies, Community Trail Management Organisations and other stakeholders.
Under the Walks Scheme, funding is provided to farmers and other landholders to maintain the trails that cross their land.
Minister Humphreys: ‘Our goal is to make Ireland a world class destination for adventure’
