Rory All these estates were designed with the Road in mind. However the debate was about this road being put back on the Development Plan having been trashed years ago. If any case for this route being reintroduced had been put forward people could have accepted it, No case was presented by the Local Authority, not even at the Oral Hearing, which is why the Inspector tore it asunder. Read the original thread for more info.

johnglas you well know, once a road scheme is adopted, blight sets in very quickly. YankeE (capital E for ctesiphon 🙂 ) Terrace didn’t always look like sh1te. These pics weren’t for Failte Ireland and anyone who believes that it’s ok to replace barely trafficked residential streets like Fleurville and Rowanbyrn (whether up to your lofty ideals of attractive suburbia or not) is truly out of touch with proper planning.
