Upper Bann MP Addressing Concerns Over Overgrown Grass Areas
Carla Lockhart MP • May 21, 2024
MP for Upper Bann, Carla Lockhart has received many many complaints from residents in Banbridge, Lurgan and Portadown about overgrown grass areas, particularly within the estates. The DUP MP has contacted the relevant authorities and has been assured that, with the improvement in weather, maintenance crews will be active across the next weeks.
"I have raised numerous overgrown areas which need the attention of The Department for Infrastructure (DFI), NIHE & ABC Council who collectively are responsible for keeping our community safe and looking good. Unfortunately, DFIs schedule is just starting so please exercise caution as visibility on the roads may be reduced until all the areas are seen to" said Carla Lockhart.
