Council Commits to Repairing Roads In Kilnaboy Says Killeen

Tuesday, 19 August 2008 - Minister of State, Mr. Tony Killeen has received assurances form Clare County Council that it intends carrying out repairs on roads adversely affected by works on the Kilnaboy Group Water Scheme. In a written response to a representation by the local T.D. on behalf of the local community, the Council states that a resolution had been reached with the group scheme contractor and that the scheme would be completed shortly. Minister of State Killeen said, ‘Commenting on the public roads affected by the scheme, the Ennistymon Area Engineer stated that the main Regional Road was included in the Council’s annual Roads Programme, both in 2007 and 2008, at a cost of EUR417k. A further EUR60k was included in this year’s programme at Leana, Kilnaboy’. ‘The Local Authority has informed me that, once the Water Scheme is complete, further monies will be released by the Council’s Group Scheme Section as part of the road restoration’, added the Junior Agriculture Minister. The Kilnaboy native indicated, however, that these funds would not be sufficient to complete all the roads affected by the Scheme. ‘Sections will be identified on a priority basis. The Council says it hopes to have the input of local groups before a final decision is made. Any roads not completed this year will be included in the Council’s 2009 and subsequent Annual Roads Programmes’ concluded Minister of State Killeen. -ENDS- Notes to Editor: - Tony Killeen T.D., Minister of State at the Department of Agriculture, Fisheries and Food (with special responsibility for Fisheries and Forestry), is available for interview and further comment on 0035387-2525304.
