Work has begun this morning on the demolition of the old tourist office in Salthill.
The long-defunct office, situated beside Galway Atlantaquaria, has had various plans over the past decade to repurpose the site, including a business hub.
It was noted in September that planning permission wasn't required to clear the site, and yesterday, fences were erected using specialised heavy equipment, with work commencing this morning.
Speaking earlier, City West Labour Councillor Niall McNeils welcomed the move, saying that it should be zoned sooner rather than later.
