FURTHER CLARITY is needed before discussions can progress on the inclusion of a Cooraclare road in the 2023 programme of works.
Clare County Council were requested by Cllr Bill Chambers (FF) to include the L61662 in their programme of works for next year.
Senior executive engineer in the West Clare Municipal District, Alan Kennelly in his written reply flagged that the L-61662-0 was a local tertiary road which was included in the 2021 schedule of works and “was in very good condition, the last time I drove it”.
He added, “if elected member is referring to a nearby road with a similar road number, we can consider the alternate road for inclusion in the 2023 Schedule of Municipal District Works”.
As Cllr Chambers was not present at the sitting, no additional detail on the specifics regarding the road were provided. In his absence, the motion was proposed by Cllr Shane Talty (FF) and seconded by Cllr Gabriel Keating (FG).
