The Joint Committee on Public Petitions will meet today to discuss the potential of creating a greenway on the closed railway from Sligo to Athenry.  

Is this a good idea or should we be putting trains back on railway lines, rather than bikes? To discuss Shane was joined on the show by Cllr Marie Casserly, Independent Councillor and local election candidate for Sligo-Drumcliff and also Michael O’Dowd, Chairman of the Sligo branch of the Irish Farmers Association.
