A local councillor is demanding answers on the continued stonewalling of a proposed relief road for Claregalway.

Councillor Jim Cuddy says Galway County Council is fully behind the project - but it cannot progress because Transport Infrastructure Ireland is against it.

The project was first touted in 2002 - but it was later decided it wasn't needed as the M6 Motorway would take traffic out of the village.

Councillor Cuddy says that clearly has not happened - and it makes no sense for TII to continue to oppose the relief road.
