Motorway through tara (1 Viewer)

[brianoak]

So they are allowed go ahead and build the motorway through the valley.This is absolutely ridiculous.Regardless of the fact that the road is going around the hill it will still ruin the place.How anyone aware of the history of Tara and its cultural signifigance to Ireland could go ahead with this is mindboggling.There is going to be no doubt rushed archaeological dig of the area and then they are going ahead with it.As a regular visitor to Tara(I live about 15 mins away) this news has annoyed me greatly.Although I was aware this could happen I honestly didnt beleive it would.

The government talk about people having to commute to Dublin from outside the Pale will benefit and more etc etc.FUCK YOU.I have one word for you DECENTRALISATION.

If dick roche takes as long to sort this out as he did the iodine tablets to every household it'll NEVER FUCKING HAPPEN... I'm still waiting for my anti radiation drugs, dick.

There's a bypass being built around macroom (cork) that splits my parents farm in three pieces and has put them out of business. IMHO roads are bad. (that said, glad to see the father get a bit of rest at last)

 

[brianoak]

Jesus thats terrible.did they get compensated for it?

When they went out, I was living in a house that had been converted into flats, so a supply arrived for the building, but with the names of long-gone tenants. So I 'got' some, they just weren't 'for me'.

Never got my bleedin' Millennium Candle, though. Bastards. Someone oughta show them what's what.

Yeah, they will be, but the whole thing moves so bloody slowly. But like i say, it'll be good to see the auld lad get some rest, the mother's been looking for a way to get him to retire now for three or four years, so this kinda puts the stamp on it, so in the end, it's for the good, just a bit of a pity that the view out the front of the house will be of a cocking motorway now. Bloody roads authority.

That was Joe Jacob - a different Wicklow TD.

I wonder if in a thousand years time, some future road project will be held up because it would be near the historic M3?

Doesn't pretend to be balanced, but interesting....
