Mayo TD Alan Dillon has welcomed good news on the construction of a new helipad at Inishturk Island. Deputy Dillon said: "I received an update today following several representations to the Department that the construction of a new helipad on Inishturk Island is gone to tender. Works include the construction of a helicopter landing pad at Bellavaum, Inishturk, comprising construction of a helicopter landing pad and associated access road. This project is a lifeline for island residents and emergency services, to date progress has been slow but I am very confident that once a tender is chosen the work will commence. I want to commend the people of Inishturk for their patience and the Inishturk Community Club CLG for their hard work and I look forward to seeing the work progress on the Island."
