Flooding still at crisis level in south Roscommon despite improved weather

Flooding in south Roscommon remains at crisis levels despite the improved weather recently, according to a local councillor.

It comes ahead of Tánaiste Micheál Martin's visit to the Lough Funshinagh area on May 22nd.

There are hopes he will announce plans for water to be removed from the area through an underground pipe.

Rahara-based councillor Laurence Fallon says the situation remains very serious.
