He is calling for more facilities to be made available to the valuable tourism route.
A Westmeath County Councillor believes the Mullingar to Castletown greenway has been under promoted for some time by the local authority.
Fianna Fail's Ken Glynn says quick action is needed as some people in the town do not even know where the access point is to the Greenway.
