He had a motion seeking the road repair work at Campclone, Ballyfin, after the flood, at the recent Borris-in-Ossory/Mountmellick Municipal District meeting.

“It’s near one of the world’s best hotels,” Cllr Goodwin said.
“The road also leads to the Slieve Bloom mountains, which is a great amenity up there,” he said.

The work he said, “will be appreciated by the hotel owners and its guests,” he said.
