Work at Rogan Park near completion

The last section of work is under way at Bishop Rogan Park on a Kildare County Council programme which saw some 50,000 euros spent on the estate in the last year.



"Rogan Park is one of the oldest of the privately built estates in Kilcullen and needed quite a bit of attention," Cllr Billy Hillis told the Diary.

Much of the work was related to surfacing the roads and car parking areas, and the last portion of it involves improved parking and access at the innermost part of the estate.

"We also took out some old trees and topped others," Cllr Hillis added. "It's probable that what the Council did helped the estate to achieve 'most improved' status in the recent Community Awards organised annually by Kilcullen Community Action."
