Additional warning signage praised

Glens Sinn Fein Councillor Colum Thompson has welcomed the news that Road Service are to install additional warning signage and chevrons at an accident black sport on The Tromra Road near The Glendun Viaduct.

Speaking about the issue Councillor Thompson said; “I held a site meeting at the corner in question with Road Service last month and I am glad that they agree that action is needed. Warning signs and chevrons will alert drivers who are unfamiliar with the road to the dangerous corner ahead.

“I am also happy that Road Service have held an initial meeting with the land owner to discuss raising the ditch at the corner to prevent vehicles from leaving the road. I would like to thank Kevin Mullan from Road Service for meeting with me on site and for agreeing to take the appropriate action. Hopefully these measures will lead to a reduction of accidents at this particular corner.”
