I am advised by the Office of Public Works (OPW) that €58,500 was approved in May 2018, under its Minor Flood Mitigation Works and Coastal Protection scheme, for a project at Leenane Village.

Galway County Council, who are progressing the project, have advised that the emergency works to reopen the road to two lanes have now been completed and a consultant is being engaged to look at longer term solutions for both the road and Leenane village.
