Re: Re: Dublin Eastern Bypass feasibility report
You’ve answered that perfectly, johnglas.
I looked at alonso’s post a few time and I couldn’t think of how to answer it.
I understand how politically poisonous anything to do with Sandymount Strand is going to be (and add Clontarf and Dollymount to that), not to mention taking on some EU bird stop-over protection zoning, but it has to be trashed out, and not just by five or six people on Archiseek.
Building a motorway across (or under, or over) the strand is probably the wrong thing to do, but so are several other things that we seem quite content to allow.
2. To accept the boundaries of ‘Poolbeg’ as somehow sacrosanct, just because that happens to be where they stopped dumping landfill in the 1970s, is wrong.
3. Allowing Dublin Port to add to their vast land-bank without a proper urban vision for the future, is wrong.
Now all we have to do is to figure out what would be right!
