Councillor Kevin Callan has received a commitment from Louth County Council that they will carry out footpaths repairs in the Scarlet Crescent Estate.
The matter was raised as a notice of motion by the Councillor at the June meeting of the Borough with particular focus being made on the pedestrian paved section in the centre of the estate.
The Council accepted the Councillor’s motion that the pathways were in need of repair and confirmed that they are being added to the works programme.
Cllr. Callan said that there was a need to maintain sections of pathway where there was a risk of someone slipping or tripping and thanked the engineering section for their prompt response.
“We have many estates like Scarlet Crescent where these issues arise and we need to regularly carry out low cost repairs as leaving these issues unaddressed just creates a bigger and costly issues in the future” he said.
