Gowel Bridge to go on bridge rehabilitation list

Gowel Bridge to go on bridge rehabilitation list

Cllr Paddy Farrell

Cllr Paddy Farrell called on District Engineer, Darragh O’Boyle, to look for funding to repair the other bridge on the L-7409-0 at Gowel "as this old bridge causes severe flooding after heavy rain."
He noted there are two bridges on this road, one of which was constructed recently, "and a brilliant job done by Leitrim County Council." The report by the roads office said that the district office carried out repairs of the Finisklin Bridge on the public road L-7409-0 this year. 
"We can place the Gowel Bridge on the bridge rehabilitation list for future funding," the official response concluded.
