SINN Fein’s Patricia Logue has said that Derry residents should not have to live in fear of their homes flooding.
She was speaking after another night of flooding in the Foyle Road area of Derry.
Said Councillor Logue: “It’s intolerable that residents have to live in constant fear of flooding to their homes and the surrounding area.
“Especially just a few weeks out from Christmas.
“Just last week the issue of flooding in the Foyle Road area was raised at the Assembly’s Infrastructure Committee by local MLA Pádraig Delargy.
“He has called on the Minister to intervene as a matter of urgency and resolve these recurring flooding issues.
“Regular flooding has been ongoing there for many years.
“The residents that I have been in contact with are demanding that remedial measures are carried out to address these repeated occurrences.”
