Special funding for regional roads is needed to enable economy and tourism to thrive in Tipperary.

That’s the view of several councillors at this month’s gathering of the local authority.

Much of the road network in the Premier is in need of maintenance and upgrades following harsh conditions last winter.

Cllr Joe Hannigan feels the economic activity in the area could benefit from improvements to Tipp’s roads.
