Planning granted for new GAA facilities in west Mayo
WESTPORT GAA Club has been granted planning permission for a major development on the Golf Course Road in the town.
It includes a full size grass playing pitch, floodlighting, spectator stand, and sports building comprising changing rooms, toilets, gym, meeting room and a multi-purpose room at Westport Demesne.
Only last week the club received a €1 million donation towards the cost of the project.
It is hoped to commence work on the project, which involves an investment of €3 million, in June.
