In what could be a sign of Covid-19 cuts, Laois has been shortchanged to the tune of €1 million in an application to central Government for specific roads projects.
The news that just €250,000 under a National Roads Programme has materialised emerged at County Hall last week where Cllr James Kelly asked if Laois County Council's application for €1.25 million had arrived.
He said, “I know that Main Street, Mountrath was earmarked for work. Is there any update on that?”
