SINN Féin’s Raymond McCartney has welcomed the news that the go ahead has been given for a £1 million pounds project which will see the construction of a pitch and play park at Shaw Court in Ballymagroarty.
Raymond McCartney said “This is good news for the greater Ballymagroarty area.
“This project is one of four across the Council area including Brandywell, Ballyarnett and and Kilfennan which will be delivered in two phases.
“Work will begin shortly on Brandywell and Ballyarnett with work on the Ballymagroaty project beginning in the early summer.
“I am pleased to inform residents that this investment in the area is worth over £1 million pounds and will now include the provision of changing rooms and a refurbishment of the community centre which will significantly improve the original plan.
“We will continue to keep residents informed as the project progresses,” he added.
