A final decision on a successful tenderer set to be made on November 11th.

A new greenway in Offaly has moved a step closer.

Engineering consultancies have been invited to tender for a financial assessment of the proposed greenway extension from Shannon Harbour to Banagher.

The initiative seeks to promote Shannon Harbour as a destination along the Grand Canal Greenway and to support tourism related uses.

A contract for the proposed work is two months, with a final decision on a successful tenderer set to be made on November 11th.

Fianna Fail Councillor Peter Ormond says this would bring great tourism to the county:
