SDLP welcome repair work planned for footpath in Victoria Bridge



This week the SDLP in Strabane has welcomed the planned repair works for a footpath on the Fyfin Road in Victoria Bridge.

SDLP representative Mary McCrossan has welcomed the planned repair works and said “The footpath in question has been in need of repair for quite some time. Our office on Butcher Street and our representatives on the ground have been contacted on numerous occasions by residents, regarding the state of the footpath and the dangers it currently poses. The footpath is very well used by residents both young and old.”

“The footpath is cracked and is starting to break up around the edges. This poses quite a serious health and safety hazard for anyone using the footpath.”  

“We have been in contact with DRD Roads Service over the last number of weeks, and they have ensured our office that the work will begin within the next six weeks. We hope that when this work is completed it will ensure the safety of residents for the foreseeable future.”
