Approach Road to Wicklow town.

To whom it may concern:

Can someone in Wicklow county council please explain why on the eve of a "Tidy Towns" competition suddenly road markings are appearing on approach roads to Wicklow town? Surely these road markings should have been in place when any resurfacing has been done or does Wicklow county council not deem road safety a priority? Rather than vanity being a priority. Also why are road markings being applied to the crater outside Sinnott Motors on the approach road from Rathnew? Surely the crater should be filled in before road makings are applied to it? Well what can I say, Wicklow county council have filled the crater outside Sinnot Motors, not very well I might add but at least its no longer an obstacle course that needs a map and compass to navigate through.

Also can someone please take the time to explain why a patch job has been done on the Ballinameesda Bends, the scene of recent deaths? This is analogous to putting a band aid on a broken leg, surely our councilors travel along these roads and are aware of how dangerous parts of the N11 are or do we have to wait for the next "Tidy Towns" competition before something is done?
