Appeal to expedite Mayo footpath plan in interest of public safety

An appeal has been issued to Mayo County Council to expedite the proposed plan to continue the footpath from the Lios Na Circe development towards Castlebar Golf Club.

Councillor Cyril Burke said the Milebush and Belcarra Road areas of the county town are developing quickly and are now in need of supports such as footpaths leading to houses and amenities.

"It is in the interest of public safety," he cited.

Councillor Burke also wants the council to consider works to replace some of the broken footpaths on the left hand side after the traffic lights on the Breaffy Road, Castlebar, heading towards Breaffy
