New basketball court for Nenagh playground
Funding has been received for a basketball court at Saint John’s Playground in Nenagh.
Nenagh Municipal District Administrator Rosemary Joyce informed councillors at their most recent meeting the money to carry out the works has been received under the Participation National Outdoor Fund in conjunction with the Sports Partnership.
Works planned for the court would also include a “biodiversity measure”, said Ms Joyce.
The funding for the Nenagh project is one of three granted in Tipperary under the programme.
Ms Joyce said tender processes were currently being undertaken in connection with the other locations in Tipperary and works would progress thereafter.
Discussions have already taken place in relation to the siting of a biodiversity area in the playground.
