The Community Involvement Scheme (CIS) is a joint approach between the Council and local communities, for the purpose of carrying out maintenance and improvement works on suitable local and regional roads.

The Scheme, which is funded by the Department of Transport, is based on a minimum community contribution of either 10% or 20% for eligible works, including general maintenance, drainage works, pavement works and footpaths, based on the criteria below:

 Where the local community contribution is monetary a minimum contribution rate of 10% will apply;

• Where the local community contribution comprises works the minimum contribution rate will be 20%;

 The terms and conditions of the Scheme apply until further notice and are subject to review by the Department of Transport.

 In August 2023 Roscommon County Council advertised for Expressions of Interest from householders and land owners on local and regional roads who wish to participate in the Community Involvement Scheme for the years 2024 and 2025. The closing date for receipt of applications was Thursday 31st August 2023.  The Scheme is not currently open to new applications.  However, any enquires on the Scheme may be emailed to roads@roscommoncoco.ie
