The Government’s Active Transport Scheme is not providing for rural communities across Galway.

That’s according to Cathaoirleach of the County Albert Dolan following a presentation at a meeting of the Athenry/Oranmore area.

The Fianna Fáil councillor is concerned a €2.5 million fund allocated to Galway won’t be spent – because too many projects are in the planning stage.

Councilor Dolan says the scheme has become less effective in recent years and it’s not serving rural communities.
