Roads across Galway are in a "dire" state - and it's an ongoing struggle to try and maintain them as they are.
That was the consensus at a meeting of Galway County Council, where it was agreed to write to Government demanding more funds.
The meeting heard that the €40m allocated for Galway roads this year isn't nearly enough to cover the 9,000km of road network in the county.
Despite some positive spin in the media, that's just a one percent increase on the figure for last year.

Councillor Mary Hoade says it's not enough - has never been enough - and millions more is desperately needed.
