Brannockstown flooding

Kildare County Council is to examine flooding problems in Brannockstown and come up with suggestions on how to alleviate it.

This follows an Area Committee motion from Cllr Martin Miley (FF), who says it is a 'serious situation' for the village. "I got a commitment from officials to visit and assess, and I look forward to positive work taking place," he says.

Cllr Miley has also asked that the Kilcullen-Dunlavin Road be added to the Council's salting list during cold weather. "It has the same status as the Kilcullen-Newbridge Road, which is saled," he says.
