📣 €1.65 Million Investment for Carrick-on-Suir 📣
I am delighted to receive confirmation from Minister Darragh O'Brien TD of a €1,645,580 investment in a major climate action project in Carrick-on-Suir.
This funding will support the rehabilitation of a long-derelict brownfield site, including the removal of asbestos and other hazardous materials, demolition of unsafe structures, treatment of invasive species, and remediation of contaminated ground.
This is a significant investment in the future of Carrick-on-Suir and will deliver real benefits for our community. Tackling dereliction and restoring this site will improve the local environment while helping to make Carrick-on-Suir an even better place to live, work and visit.
I would like to acknowledge Tipperary County Council, Marie Cox, District Administrator, Carrick-on-Suir MD and Cllr Kieran Bourke Cathaoirleach for bringing this important project forward and securing this investment for the town.
Supporting communities through the transition to a low-carbon economy is hugely important, and this funding will help ensure that local areas can benefit from new opportunities while protecting and enhancing their environment.
I am excited for this important riverside site to be transformed into a vibrant asset that the entire community can take pride in.
