Pothole patch job at Thompson's Cross

Following last week's very negative public reaction to the potholed state of Thompson's Cross, Kildare County Council has patched up the surface, writes Brian Byrne.

It's very much a patch job, though, and is not likely to last long under the daily pummelling from car and truck traffic at the junction.

As also reported last week, a consultant is to be appointed to investigate how to best deal the dangerous nature of the junction (along with nine others in the county). That's going to be a long way down the road, given how slowly these processes operate. 

So a proper resurfacing is going to be needed in the meantime.
