SDLP Derry city councillor Brian Tierney has welcomed a commitment from Roads Service to resolve a dangerous electrical fault in street lighting on Slievemore Park.
He said: “I was contacted by a number of residents around Slievemore park who became concerned when today’s high winds caused damage to street lighting which could result in serious electrical danger.
“I contacted Roads Service as soon as I became aware of the damage done to street lighting, including one which was hanging by electrical wiring. This clearly posed a serious hazard for residents and motorists and I’m pleased that Roads Service has indicated they will send an engineer.
“I would encourage anyone who notices similar damage to get in touch as soon as possible and we’ll refer the issue to Roads Service.”
