Keel beach in Achill.

Masterplan needed for Mayo beauty spot

A MASTERPLAN is needed for the development of the Keel area in Achill.

A €1.3 million investment is being made in a changing/toilets facility at Keel, which is going out to tender.

An information day was held last spring about how Keel should be developed, and now local Councillor Paul McNamara has asked that a masterplan be put together on its future development.

In general, the area has been neglected, he said, and a masterplan was needed for this area and Achill in general, about how they can improve facilities in it.

The community had been asked for their ideas before and he suggested another information day be held again to make progress.
