Carn’s new bargain footbridge costs Council just €10,000
Councillor praises engineer for taking ‘bull by the horns’
CARN’S new footbridge on the Moville Road will cost the Council a bargain price of €10,000, an Inishowen councillor has revealed.
Quigley’s Point councillor Mickey Doherty (pictured above on right) explained how he urged the Council to buy the bridge after he was approached by a man in Dublin, who was selling it. Cllr. Doherty said the price was “too good to pass”.
