Alex Easton MLA has today called on TNI to sort out the flooding issue at Skipperstone Park, Bangor.

Speaking today Alex Easton MLA said:

“I have been contact by a constituent living in the Skiperstone pensioners bungalows who are concerned at the flooding that is occurring during heavy rainfall at Skipperstone Park“

“This situation has apparently been going on for some time and it is important that TNI investigate the issue, to see if the drains need cleared out, or if there is any other potential reason for this flooding. This can be potentially dangerous for pedestrians especially if the footpaths get flooded, encase someone especially the elderly who live in the area slip in the water or if a car loses control while driving through the flood water. I have written to TNI and have asked them to get onto the issue and resolve it as soon as possible.”
