A former Clare senator is urging the county's elected representatives fight for funding which she insists is "absolutely mandatory". It comes as the Ennistymon to Moyasta section of the West Clare Railway Greenway project has been denied funding by Transport Infrastructrure Ireland. In response to a parliamentary question from Bodyke Fine Gael TD Joe Cooney, TII says it will "give consideration to funding the progression of the Ennistymon to Miltown Malbay and Miltown Malbay to Moyasta Greenway sections in 2026 taking cognisance of the limited funding available to TII generally and the many competing demands for such funding". Inagh-based Green Party Deputy Leader Róisín Garvey says it will be a waste of money and hard work if the project doesn't come to fruition.
