The Swinford electoral area will receive €580,000 worth of the €3.5 million investment in Mayo roads that was announced last week. Paul Dolan of Mayo County Council told a meeting of the Swinford Electoral Area committee this week that two separate projects had been identified in the area. The two roads which will receive the funding are the R322 from Kiltimagh to Kilkelly, which will get €360,000 extra funding, and the L1907 from Urlar towards Kilmovee which has been allocated an extra €220,000.
He went on to tell the meeting that he expected the work would be carried out between now and the end of July and discussions had been held between the area office and the machinery yard to schedule when equipment would be needed.
