Vehicular access now permitted in all council cemeteries
Vehicles had been permitted at the four main cemeteries between 9am and 10am each day; however, Mid and East Antrim Borough Council has agreed to allow the additional access to provide more flexibility to those with a disability.
"We ask visitors to be aware that social distancing rules will continue to apply within the grounds and cemeteries will be closed to all access 15 minutes before a funeral," a statement from the local authority read.
