A Sixmilebridge councillor says elderly residents in the area are afraid to park their cars at the town’s train station after an encampment was set-up there there yesterday.
Occupiers of an encampment near Illaunumangh Graveyard in Shannon left there yesterday and are believed to have moved on to Sixmilebridge shortly afterwards.
Gardai had outlined how they were maintaining an increased presence in Shannon last week, due to local concerns, and there are now calls for a similar presence to be established in Sixmilebridge.

Independent councillor PJ Ryan says a solution to the issue needs to be found quickly.
