Today I announced funding of €4.5 million to 26 Greenway Projects. The funding was allocated under the Carbon Tax Fund 2020 and provides support for feasibility, planning and design for Greenways around the country. I am pleased to confirm that funding of €175,000 has been allocated to Cavan County Council for two sections of the Cavan Railway Greenway, from Cavan to Drumully and from Cloverhill to Belturbet.
