UPDATED 27/02
To avoid giving larger groups an unfair advantage the results will appear in the voting form on March 1st.
Riverside Trail
It shouldn't come as a surprise to see the lower trail at the Athlumney Riverside Path under a few inches of water. It is a floodplain after all.
The erosion on the higher path is exposing more of the buried fence wire so watch your step.
Clean Up
The derelict house opposite Kilcarn Bridge is being cleared of debris and a steel fence is to be installed. Plans to build apartments were shelved during the recession and we don't expect any new works to take place.
Trees Gone
Who would have thought that half a dozen trees would be taken down to facilitate a simple road crossing on Metges Road?
Will more come down if there's another installed?
Craters
Deep and getting wider potholes are causing issues at the Johnstown Shopping Centre.
Road Changes
Road works on Railway Street in Navan are due to finish in March bringing with it the introduction of 2 way traffic.
Flooding
The recent rainfall may soon see the River Boyne flood over into the canal at the Ramparts.
Weather Alert
Yellow weather warning in place. 8pm to 8am, with rain adding to the waterlogged ground.
