A protest will take place in Glenties on Sunday about nothing being done about the reinstatement of the Mullantyboyle bridge.
Local TDs and councillors will be in attendance for the demonstration (3pm).
“The Main Street will be closed for 20 minutes to show what could happen as we don’t have a alternative route around the town,” said local action committee spokesman Brian Carr.
“Health and safety is a major problem as no alternative route means even emergency services would have a detour of 30km to an incident.
“The price of the reinstatement rose from €100k to €604k because of the fresh water muscles in the river.
“So we ask is a muscle worth more than a human life?”
