An application was received from Mayo County Council for an Extension to the Great Western Greenway under the first funding call following the Strategy for the Future Development of National and Regional Greenways that closed on Friday November 30th. While the bridge in question does form part of this Greenway, it was not included in the application to my Department for funding. I understand that this is due to the fact that funding for the bridge was applied for under the ORIS Scheme of the Department of Rural and Community Development.
