Work in Duleek Should Be Fast-Tracked

Sinn Féin's local election candidate in East Meath, Sinéad Burke, has called on Meath County Council to fast-track the sewage works in the Duleek area to relieve residents of one local housing estate. She said, "I have been contacted by a number residents of the Commons estate in the village who say they had been promised that appropriate sewage infrastructure works in the area would be completed in 2007. Instead the only facility they have is a communal tank located at the back of the estate. The residents closest to the tank have complained that in warmer weather they cannot go out to the back garden because of the stench. "I understand that there are ongoing works in the area but I have called on Meath County Council to review it's schedule of works to fast-track this essential project."
