Moyle District Council - Quick and Easy Access for Emergency Service Vehicles?

A Proliferation of Padlocks and Chains

Two padlocks and a long chain
have replaced a single padlock


Chain permits the bollard to be lifted out
and the crossing-gate to be opened.
Why not just remove the bollard?

Perhaps Moyle Council needs to have a chat with the National Trust and others who may be preventing quick and easy access for emergency service vehicles.

If ropes and keepers were sufficient in the past why have padlocks been added?

Added August 2


A new sign - minus a logo - has appeared on the landward crossing-gate. A similar sign with a Moyle District Council logo is already clearly visible across the track on the other gate. Who put the new sign up?
