Completion of resurfacing works welcomed by Slieve Gullion Councillor
Slieve Gullion Area Sinn Féin Councillor Barrá Ó Muirí has said that the completion of resurfacing of the Lough Road in Newtownhamilton is welcome news for local residents and those using the road.
“I have lobbied on resident’s behalf for quite some time to get action taken by Transport NI in relation to the surface.
“Frustration had set in mainly due to proposed action being put on the long finger, but the completion of the resurfacing has been welcomed by all. The resurfacing continued on down part of the old Coach Road, on both sides of Caherty’s farm which is great news.

“Whilst most realise that there are financial constraints and priority demands on Roads Services, let’s hope 2017 can see a continuation of this good work in this rural area.”
