A new rail station to serve a growing community in north Drogheda is a case I've been making to anyone who will listen for some time now. Deputy Nash said he met with Irish Rail chief executive Mary Considine last month to discuss the issue and was advised to ask the National Transport Authority to develop a business case for the station. "I subsequently wrote to the NTA but was frustrated with the response," he said.

Cllr. Declan Power told the meeting that while he welcomed the council's continued efforts to tackle potholes, the finished condition of many repairs was falling short. "The workmanship is not great," he said, describing how some repaired sections of road as very uneven. "When you look at them, they resemble a patchwork quilt."
