Light up bridge in Mayo's county town

THE bridge between Lough Lannagh and Aldi in Castlebar should be lit up.

The lights have been out of commission for five years now, Councillor Ger Deere told a local municipal district meeting.

With the Castlebar Mitchels ladies achievements in reaching an All-Ireland final, it would be nice to see it lit up in their colours, he said.

St. Patrick's Day was coming up soon too, he added.

The Mitchels team’s achievement was lauded by councillors at the meeting.
