Wicklow County Council have submitted a number of applications for funding under the minor works scheme initiated by the Office of Public Works in 2009. Following a qualitative assessment of these applications, funding totalling €283,500 has been allocated to the Council in 2010 for works at two locations at Boghall Road, Bray involving the upgrading and installation of pipes, and for a coastal protection study at Arklow. Other applications are still being assessed in conjunction with the Council, and a decision will be made shortly in respect of these. It will be open to Wicklow County Council to submit further applications for funding during the remainder of the year.
