Faded road markings at an Ennis housing estate on the Gort Rd have been repainted following requests from residents and local representatives.

Works were completed off the back of a request before its March meeting where Cllr Mark Nestor (FF) tabled a proposal appealing for the repainting of the “very faded” road markings.

Cllr Ann Norton (IND) seconded the motion while Cllr Mary Howard (FG) referred to a wider issue surrounding speed bumps and liability. She asked that a survey be conducted in the vicinity of speed bumps and questioned, “if they can’t see bumps due to no markings are we liable. It’s important that somebody would take a couple of hours to look at them”.

Subsequent to the repainting of the markings, Cllr Nestor paid tribute to the local authority for their swift management of the matter. “I was glad to see works have been carried out in the Glenina estate,” he outlined.
