Galway Bay fm newsroom - The county council has voted to allocate more funding to county roads within 25km of the city boundary.
A motion on the matter was put forward at a meeting of the local authority this week by Athenry Oranmore area councillor Martina Kinane.
The council has agreed that 10% of any additional roads funding should be allocated to the roads around the city perimeter - as these routes are subject to heavy traffic on a daily basis.
Councillor Kinane says due to the fact that the council's roads funding is allocated on a per kilometer basis, some of the county's busiest roads have been neglected.
