The HSE is finally confirming plans for the Mountrath Health Centre site.
Progress is finally underway on the long delayed redevelopment of Mountrath Health Centre, following years of complaints about outdated conditions.

The HSE confirmed it is moving forward with plans to refurbish and extend the existing site after earlier proposals were abandoned.
Councillor Kelly says a design team is expected to be appointed by this year:
