Council to be asked to repair Main Street

Kildare County Council is being asked to complete the resurfacing of the Main Street in Kilcullen, writes Brian Byrne.

Cllr Ivan Keatley has put down a motion on the issue for the next meeting of Athy Area Committee, which will be held at 10am on Monday, 22 April. It will be held in the Municipal Building, Rathstewart, Athy.

The surfaces on Lower Main Street and the bridge were repaired in late summer 2011, but from the bridge upwards to beyond the traffic lights is still in a very poor condition.

During that last works, a paver went out of control at the top of Hillside and careened down the hill until stopped by hitting a corner of Brennan's Hardware property.
