Sinn Féin Foyle MLA Raymond McCartney has welcomed the news from DRD Roads Service that extra personal will travel on road gritting lorries following attempts to hijack a lorry in the city on Friday morning.
Foyle MLA Raymond McCartney said “Obviously following Friday morning’s incident workers and their families were extremely worried for their safety whilst out working alone in the middle of the night providing an essential service for the people of Derry.
I have received confirmation from Roads Service that an extra worker will be travelling with the gritter drivers over the next couple of weeks to give an added sense of security.
