Armoy Ulster-Scots request

And requests for English/Irish signs have come in for the following areas of Ballycastle: Macauley Park, Moyle Park, Caman Crescent, Stroanshesk Park, Moyle Road and Moyle Avenue.

A Council report said surveys will be carried out in due course. If more than two thirds of respondents say they want the bilingual signage it will go ahead.

Councillors were told surveys are currently being carried out at Leyland Road in Ballycastle and three areas of Glenariffe - Carneil Park, Main Street and Warren Park.

The results of the surveys will be brought before Council upon completion.

A Council report said: ‘After consultation with Technical Services Department we have been advised that the budget allocated for the erection of bilingual street nameplates for this financial year has now been spent so any further applications will have to be deferred to the next financial year.’

The report also said confirmation has now been received for the Irish translation for Gaults Road, Cushendall, which is Bothar an Ghallda.
