38 roads remain flooded in Co Monaghan

Cllr Coyle has raised concerns over the current situation.

38 roads are currently flooded which are predominantly in South Monaghan.
As the River Fane continues to exceed previous record levels, an Orange Flood Weather Warning has been issued for Monaghan by the Met Éireann Flood Forecasting Unit for the next three days.
Monaghan County Council crews continue to maintain temporary traffic management arrangements to ensure public safety.

While highlighting his concerns over the issue he said the county Fire Service has again rescued people from vehicles in floodwater.

Public Safety Advice - Never drive through floodwater. If the road ahead is flooded, turn around and find an alternative route.
Stay away from swollen rivers, streams, and flooded riverbanks, which may collapse without warning.

Avoid walking near open riverbanks during flooding, as water may be deeper and faster flowing than it appears.
