Residents Road rage finally over? Report from 1999
Well it seems as if our minds have been put to rest once and for all on the case
of the disappearing workers at the deserted roadworks at the St Johnston Bridge.
No we don’t have another ‘bermuda triangle’ it was simply a case of a lot of red
tape. The total estimated cost of the development was estimated to be somewhere
in the region of between £150,000 and £200,00
Whilst Donegal County Council were waiting for the
remainder of the money to be allocated we were left looking at a “site” which
caused many sore eyes.
Well at the moment it is safe to say that progress has
been made and we are assured that the completion date is not far off. The new
and improved road was officially opened by various local councillors, funnily
enough, during their electoral campaigns a few weeks ago!
Now that we are catching up with the rest of the modern
world and getting more developed roads perhaps it won't be long until we get to
the stage of campaigning for a road like the one in the picture! We can always
dream! Report by Ellen Doherty
