Motorists, cyclists and pedestrians are being urged to be careful on the roads now that hedge cutting has begun.
Cllr Peter ‘Chap’ Cleere said it was great that landowners were getting out to cut roadside hedges but appealed for people to be careful and mindful on the roads.
A ‘tsunami’ of work has been carried out on the roads of the Callan Thomastown district over the summer months, according to Cllr Cleere.
Meeting for the first time since the summer break, district councillors thanked Kilkenny County Council’s area engineer for the works completed, but also raised a number of concerns for safety at busy junctions.
Some areas of concern have been improved in the past and there was a plea to all motorists to drive safely.
