​Decision Due Mid-April on Waste Transfer

A final decision on the Waste Transfer Licence will be made by Galway County Council by The Environment Section in mid-April. Hundreds of submissions were made even during lockdown. Families, clubs, community groups, businesses – everyone had their say on the future for the town.

Over the past number of months, many people have been out enjoying the walks within the 5k through bogland areas along by the bog roads through Poolboy/Kellysgrove and along the Grand Canal during this tough time of Covid-19 Lockdown.

With no official public park in Ballinasloe; this amazing natural resource full of beauty and biodiversity has really been rediscovered and has to be protected for future generations

PRO and Co-Founder Senator Aisling Dolan again praised those involved: “Thank you from all on our Committee to all our Volunteers and again to all who have supported our fundraisers over the past number of years. It is thanks to the people of Ballinasloe that we have been able to fight this battle and it will continue”.

All notified parties to the decision will have the right to appeal .Contact: Aisling Dolan for further queries 086 3690719
