Duddy gravely concerned no finance to repair faded pedestrian crossings across city

SINN Fein Councillor Sharon Duddy has said she is gravely concerned that Transport NI (formerly Roads Service) have said they have no finance to repair faded pedestrians crossing across the city.

They made the comments after Councillor Duddy raised concerns about badly faded road markings and markings on pedestrian crossings in the Bogside.

Councillor Duddy said: “Last week I raised concerns of local residents and motorists that many of the road markings at key crossings in the area have simply disappeared.

“Of major concern is the crossing adjacent to the William Street roundabout which in some places is non-existent.Along with a number of other crossings in the Bogside.

“I am gravely concerned that Transport NI (formerly Roads Service) have now said they have no finance to repair faded pedestrians in the Bogside and across the city.

“I believe the safety around pedestrian crossings and associated road markings should be priority and would call on Transport NI to look at the situation here again.”
