Concern over difficulty of maintaining Lough Corrib piers due to land ownership issues

Concerns are being raised over a significant hurdle being encountered in maintaining some piers around Lough Corrib.

Councillor Andrew Reddington says the big problem is that many of the piers are actually on private land.

As a result, he says many of the piers are in poor condition and in desperate need of works.
