Costings needed to fix fallen Laois streetlight
Laois council had to get costings and approval for green light could be given for Graiguecullen light
Costings and approval had to be secured before the goahaed could be given to fix a public streetlight in Graigucullen.
The requirement for a two-step process to be taken before repairs could take place emerged at a recent council meeting in Portlaoise, where it was confirmed that Laois County Council would repair a fallen in the coming weeks.
Independent Cllr Aisling Moran asked in a motion that the local authority repair the fallen light at the entrance to Barrowvale estate in the Laois Carlow town.
In a written response, the Roads Department stated that: “Road Design have sought and received costings for these works. They have been approved and will be carried out in the coming weeks.”
