It follows a multi-agency meeting last evening at County Hall where incidents over the last two years on the N84 with wandering horses have led to a number of collisions.

The meeting was attended by city and county council officials, local area councillors, the Department of Agriculture, Galway Traveller Movement and the Gardai.

Councillor James Charity described the round-table discussion as 'productive' and said proposals such as erecting fencing along two pinch-points are to be costed and considered.

He also said an agreement was made to examine the wider issue of animal welfare in areas such as chipping.
