New pedestrian crossing and works at local graveyard set to improve safety in Freshford, County Kilkenny

From the Freshford Notes inside The Kilkenny People: As part of the ongoing safety programme in Freshford village a new pedestrian crossing is being installed on the Ballyragget Road across from Delaneys.

Cllr Michael McCarthy says work has started and will be ongoing for the next number of weeks.

“This is a welcome safety feature for both the young and not so young,” he said.

Freshford graveyard is soon to have a welcome safety first facility.

Work has commenced on the long awaited car park, also according to Cllr Michael McCarthy.

“Fencing is being erected this week with ground works to follow,” said Cllr McCarthy.

“Special thanks to Donal O’Sullivan for his co-operation in the matter.”
