Lifford and Strabane have been dealt a huge blow after funding for the much-publicised Riverine Project was pulled.

The €6 million plan was supposed to regenerate the area and bring the two communities together.

A series of improvements including cycle lanes, bridges and art instillations was planned.

But the Special European Union Programmes Body said today the project has been scrapped because of a lack of funding.

There has been so far no comment from Donegal County Council.
