The erection of two large road signs on a scenic part of the road between Lismore and Cappoquin, was criticised at the recent meeting of Lismore Town Council.

Councillor John Heneghan said the signage at Kitchen Hole on the Cappoquin road was badly positioned. “They’re right bang in the middle of a scenic area,” he pointed out. While one has since been removed, he asked when the other one would be taken down.

Acting town manager, Paul Daly said they wouldn’t leave up the large NRA information sign “any longer than we need to.” The difficulty was the size, he explained, it was hard to find suitable locations for them.
