Craughwell school expansion hits roadblock

Galway Bay fm newsroom – Craughwell National School's planned extension has hit a roadblock. The project would see the construction of a new two-storey, eight-classroom school extension with GP hall. The board of management secured planning approval for the expansion in June. However this has been appealed by a group of local residents who have concerns over a new entrance and the potential for traffic chaos on an existing residential access road. An Bord Pleanála is due to make a decision shortly.
