Galway City West and Knocknacarra Councillor Donal Lyons this week acknowledged the further resurfacing works to footpaths in Cappagh Park.
He said that over the years,he had received numerous representations from parents, wheelchair users, walkers and joggers but in particular parents with prams and push chairs who expressed concerns regarding the poor surface on the footpaths and the need to resurface them.
“Cappagh Park is a fantastic local amenity with active and passive use but the majority of footpaths have not received any remedial work since there were installed when the park was officially opened in 2001.
“The works now completed will add to the works carried out last year and will make a big difference for accessibility to park areas.
“I want to thank the engineers and officials in Galway City Council Parks and Recreation Department for their help in addressing my representations and carrying out the work,” he concluded.
