Move to stop anti-social behaviour under Mayo bridge

A CCTV camera is to be installed under the bridge along the river walk near Marsh House, Market Square, Castlebar.

Local Councillor Ger Deere has been campaigning for the facility for some time.

He explained: “This is a location which attracts anti-social behaviour and CCTV will help to eliminate this problem.

"It will also assist in identifying litter louts who continuously discard rubbish at the location despite volunteers cleaning up the area on a weekly basis.

“It is unacceptable what is happening there and has to be stopped once and for all.”

Castlebar Municipal District has agreed to put CCTV in place there.
