Galway Bay fm newsroom – Members of the Travelling Community based at Carrowbrowne halting site are not expected to be moved before Christmas.
An Bord Pleanála has decided to refuse an extension of planning permission for the 15 bay-halting site at the Headford Road.
The site was originally meant to be a temporary facility but extensions of planning permission were granted by the county council.
However, that planning permission has now ended and the site is effectively illegal.
Margaret Ó Riada from Galway Traveller Movement told Keith Finnegan that the families probably won’t be moved before Christmas, but face an uncertain future.
