Councillor appeals for ongoing issues to be dealt with for the betterment of the community

The Blessing of the Graves in Ballyshannon has clashed with a match in Fr Tierney Park, leading to gridlock.

The Rock area of the town on the south bank of the Erne was brought to a standstill on Sunday afternoon.

Frustrated Cllr Barry Sweeny (FG) too to Facebook to say: "Traffic chaos on The Rock again. Graveyard Sunday, one of the busiest days of the year plus a match in the park has resulted in traffic gridlock.

"I have pushed for a solution to this issue for a long time without results... yet.

"I will continue with renewed effort to get this nightmare improved for vehicles and pedestrians and school children."
