Galway Bay fm newsroom - Almost half a million euro of additional funding has been approved for roads across Galway under the Government's Local Improvement Scheme.
The extra allocation of €426 thousand is in addition to €942 thousand earmarked for Galway in September.
The LIS supports improvement works on private or non-public roads which are used by the public and lead to homes, farms or local amenities.
The scheme was re-introduced this year for the first time since 2011.
