Success in sralagagh

I was just back in Sralagagh, and it seems that work has commenced on repairing the bridge. The whole thing has been excavated. I have not heard anything back from Coillte, but given the more committed approach this time, I assume the bridge is being repaired by Coillte.

This is a good outcome for everyone, and indeed nothing has been done with this road since the 1940s, so the involvement of Coillte in a bit of road maintenance here could be the beginning of a more general improvement to the road. The benefit to Ballycastle would be significant as many people are reliant on Sralagagh banks.

If indeed it is Coillte doing this, then I will write a nice letter to them to thank them on behalf of everyone.

I'll pop over again and take better pictures if i can.
