    it took the british cabinet minister michael hesteltine over 10 years to remove car parking from the somerset house courtyard in central london. I believe it was civil servants in the inland revenue department that was using it and they dug their heels in and prolonged the whole process.
    it has since become a beautiful public place with water fountains during the summer and an ice rink during the winter months. it was only hesteltines extremely firm resolve thst beat them.
    I hope that a similar delay does not happen here in kildare house. that would be a shame.

    this is so disheartening 😡 , I cant imagine many tourists will want to visit irish beauty spots filled with modern bungalows competing for attention on the hillsides. whilst I have some sympathy with locals,wanting to live close to where they work I am concerned that many exceptions will occur and will add to the blight of our countryside. bnc

    does anyone know the target completion date for the upgrading of o’connell street (for the section up to parnell street).
    also, will the the upgrading of parnell sq be done in tandem with this section of o’connell street or immediately afterwards ?
