Public safety concerns have been raised over an “overcrowding” issue at Dundonald Ice Bowl with a city councillor warning there could have been “catastrophic” consequences.
The local authority has now pledged to investigate the situation with Council officials saying the facility is seeing large numbers of visitors thanks to the popularity of the TV show Dancing on Ice.
Lisburn South DUP councillor, Alan Givan told Tuesday night’s meeting of Lisburn City and Castlereagh District Council: “I have a real concern over a safety issue last Saturday during the handover at 3pm, when it was absolutely jam packed in the reception area, where the boots are organised.
