Claddagh residents to host demonstration about flood barriers

Galway Bay fm newsroom - The Claddagh Residents Association will host a special demonstration about flood barrier gates later.

It follows severe flooding in the area during Storm Eleanor last week - after a major sea surge swept into the city without warning.

Areas worst affected included Fairhill Road, Raven Terrace, Father Griffin Road, Spanish Parade and Claddagh Quay.

The Claddagh Residents Association has now arranged a demonstration about flood barrier gates from Louth-based Dameasy Flood Barrier Company.

Thomas Cox of the Claddagh Residents Association says the flooding experienced this week was unlike anything seen before.
