SINN Féin Councillor Eric McGinley has welcomed the commencement of work to install new street lights on Ringfort Road.
He said: “Work has commenced on the installation of new street lights on the entire length of Ringfort Road.
“This work will take place in conjunction with the construction of a cycle path and will involve the installation of almost 30 new lighting standards.
“There have been ongoing problems with the lights along the whole length of the road but I anticipate that the new lighting will provide an improvement for road users and pedestrians alike.
“I would take this opportunity to acknowledge the work of the Street Lighting Department which follows closely on from the extensive replacement of lights in Ballymagroarty.”
