A total of about one and three-quarter million euro has been awarded to counties Sligo, Leitrim and Donegal in CLAR funding.
Donegal will get a total of €879,000; Sligo €599,000 and Leitrim €275,000.
Much of the money is going to road safety measures such as signage and lights near schools.
The individual amounts given to projects in each county range from €3,000 to €25,000.

West Sligo benefitted with more than 15 projects receiving amounts ranging from €1,000 to €14,000.
