Mountview Park lighting fault must be addressed

Carla Lockhart MP • January 17, 2024

DUP MP Carla Lockhart has called for the Department for Infrastructure to deliver a swift fix to a streetlight fault impacting Mountview Park in Banbridge.

The Upper Bann representative said:

 

“Residents in Mountview Park, Banbridge, have brought to my attention the fact that their street lighting has been defective for a number of days. This is impacting upon the area, particularly those residents who are on in years and for whom the streetlights are important from a safety and reassurance perspective.

 

I have engaged with the Department for Infrastructure to highlight the fault and to press for a speedy repair to be carried out, to restore these street lights. I will continue to engage with the Department to deliver this outcome for residents.

 

If anyone else has an issue with streetlights, please get in touch and I will ensure faults are reported and repairs requested.”
