This area is known for anti-social behaviour - public consumption of alcohol and recently, a number of mugging attempts, making it unsafe for many residents in Kilmore West wishing to walk to and back from the local shopping centre. Reply: The Parks Service do not provide lighting within Parks or Open Spaces unless there is no safe lit alternative routes. As there is an existing lit route from the Shopping Centre via Kilmore Road and Cromcastle Road the provision of lighting along this route would be considered very low priority. Contact: Fergus O’Carroll, Senior Executive Parks Superintendent - 2226625 Email: [email protected] However, while conducting the walkabout around Kilmore in relation to traffic issues, the Local Area Manager will include an inspection of this area. Contact: Derek Farrell, Acting Assistant Area Manager – 2228546 Email: [email protected] Coilín O’Reilly Director of Services North City Order: Agreed.
