Obviously, it is important that this Civic Enhancement project will bring new business opportunities and greater footfall numbers to Mullingar. 

However, we are conscious that any disruption during the period of the project may cause problems for customers, business owners and managers of local retail and services, delivery drivers, taxi drivers and residents. 

To this end we intend to work closely with Westmeath County Council in order to inform you how the roll out of the project will affect you. 

It is our understanding that Westmeath County Council wish to include local businesses and residents in the process, and they will make every effort to keep us informed in real time.
