A Meath county councillor has asked if a courtesy crossing adjacent to St Peter’s National School within the demesne of Dunboyne Castle will be upgraded this year. Fine Gael Cllr Maria Murphy raised the issue at the Ratoath Municipal District.
Officials replied that the upgrade to the existing courtesy crossing located near the school will require a design upgrade to the public lighting and a new electrical connection. Specialist contractors will be required to undertake the works.
The officials added that the detail design works were ongoing, however considering the required specialist works and acquisition of a new connection it was expected this scheme would not be operational until early next year.
