Alliance Councillor Patrick Clarke has welcomed the completion of recent drainage works and resurfacing to a section of footpath on Main Street in Dundrum running from Brennan’s store which was prone to flooding.
Councillor Clarke had raised the flooding issue with Roads Service following local resident complaints who live near to the flooded footpath.
“Following ongoing complaints from local residents about a section of footpath along Main Street Dundrum from Brennan’s store which was continually prone to flooding during a period of heavy and persistent rainfall I contacted Roads Service to investigate,” he said. “Following a site survey Roads Service agreed to carry out drainage works and have now improved drainage through the provision of a new water gully along the footpath as well as new drainage piping and footpath channels and resurfacing. “Already the local residents have notice a dramatic difference with no excess water or flooding on this section of footpath. I would like to thank Roads Service for carrying out the recent drainage works.”
