I believe that Waterways Ireland and Dublin City Council should have: a canal based Park Warden service and a Dublin based maintenance crew in order to keep and maintain the Grand Canal, one of Dublin\'s finest natural amenities.

The canal remains in a state of neglect that ignores the needs of everyone who walks these paths daily. I am still pushing for a dedicated maintenance crew despite the lack of any clear response from the authorities. This is dragging on far longer than I hoped but I am not walking away from the mess they have allowed to grow.

The weeds and the litter are just getting worse every single year. Do something before it is ruined for good.

Finally someone said it. The canal is part of our history and we are letting it rot.

Its a disgrace the state of the canal lately. Full of cans and rubbish everywhere. needs a permanent crew to clean it up daily.
