A Strandhill based Councillor is warning that although Sligo has not featured prominently in a recent report into costal erosion, it is still vital that the county is included in a national plan to deal with the issue.

Research from the University of Galway says Government must move beyond monitoring coastal change and begin planning for the relocation of homes, businesses and key infrastructure in vulnerable areas.

Local areas mentioned in the publication include, Streedagh Beach, Dunmoran Strand, and Enniscrone.

Previously calls were made for a comprehensive, long-term solution for coastal erosion in Strandhill.
