He raised the issue at a recent meeting of Carlow Municipal District.

"There are 102 estates in Carlow Town and road sweeping and gullies are two issues that come up a lot.

"The gully was cleared afterwards and it made a huge difference to her."

"The small jobs are important," he told the meeting.
