Quick update. 6 weeks after this video was published the hole is still there, just getting bigger.

A contractor has been engaged. When they will do the job is another matter. I talked to the guy 2 weeks ago. They have done work on the western islands and knows my brother slightly. This harbour really needs a breakwater too. I can feel the pier vibrate when waves slam against it.

After watching the video again how this big hole isn't fixed yet? That is urgent Fingal County Council when do you plan to do it?

Is the harbour master not responsible to engage the council in regards to the upkeep and safety of the harbour?
@davidslingsby11426 ай бұрын
He should be engaging with the boat owners but that's the problem but he just says contact FCC and sort it through them. Even the fisherman I have spoken to that complied and registered there vessels with the council are simply being badly treated by FCC. Sadly they fear an even worse treatment if they were to speak out.

I'm sure the council will fix this quickly.

Balbriggan harbour inside this hole is a real concern and can be very dangerous. Vote Derek McLoughlin

I agree and many others do but fear standing up for what was an old and established community that seems to be left out, of all decision making regarding planning call it wat you want. Balbriggan started very small but there has to be some serious clown's back in the designing the roads around Dunn's. The foot paths are tiny. The blak spots built into the roads. The massive puddle that covers half the road on the bend of Hamlet lane. Footpaths that end in a big steps. The cycle paths are not swept and are in a not fit for purpose state. Wat the fuck is going on with these new foot parhs? Different levels if sucks and Balbriggan deserves better.

Saw the two council lads on a chartered inflatable out behind the wall checking out the damage. Hopefully it's done by Christmas
