We have been informed of a dangerous situation with a man hole cover on the open space area at Riverwood Chase/Copse, close to the playground.

The concrete surrounds to the man hole cover have recently broken and there is the possibility that the hole underneath the man hole cover will be exposed.

We have reported the issue, including photos, to Fingal County Council Parks and Water Services Departments and to Castlethorn Construction.

While we wait for a response from them, please take extra care in the vicinity of the man hole cover.

UPDATE: FCC Water Services surveyed the cover early Friday afternoon and did some work on it later in the afternoon. The job will be completed on Monday. The committee appreciates the rapid response of the Water Services Department.
