Local Councillor pleads for additional public seating in Sligo

Concern has been raised once again over a lack of seating through one of Sligo towns busiest routes.

The stretch between Hughes Bridge and Cartron Cross currently has no seating in place with ongoing calls on Sligo County Council to install the infrastructure.

Local Cllr Arthur Gibbons says it's badly needed as people, particularly the elderly, who would like to walk into town could be apprehensive due to the issue.

Cllr Gibbons says if we're serious about encouraging people to exercise, then there should also be adequate seating:
