A €12m project to restore a disused canal that criss-crosses the Irish border could revitalise tourism and communities, campaigners have said.
The Ulster Canal runs through counties Armagh, Fermanagh, Tyrone, in Northern Ireland, and County Monaghan in the Republic of Ireland.

The Irish government has announced funds to reopen the canal between Clones and Clonfad, County Monaghan.
The final commitment to funding for the €12m (£10.4m) project, which will include a greenway, refurbishment, and a marina, was announced on Wednesday.
A section of a disused canal in the border region of Monaghan and Fermanagh will be restored and reopened as a public amenity more than 90 years after it was abandoned.
