Tuam Hub


Tuam Hub Town

In the National Spatial Strategy 2002, Tuam was designated a Hub Town. According to the National Spatial Strategy, the town of Tuam is positioned to both assist in building links and interactions between the existing Gateway of Galway City and the new Gateway at Sligo and to energise its own substantial catchment area in County Galway. Tuam can perform this role through its position in the area’s urban structure in terms of population, strategic location on the N17 and regional road networks as well as energy and communication links, its substantial capacity for development and local employment and service functions.
