A new report into the tourism potential of the River Blackwater across Co Tyrone and Co Armagh has said almost £3million in funding is needed to boost the area.
The feasibility study commissioned by Mid Ulster Council outlines a series of measures to boost water-based tourism around the river.
Referring to it as ‘one of the most underutilised inland waterway opportunities in Northern Ireland’, the study recommends the upgrade and building of a number of jetties, car parks and campsites.
