well bth just to let u know galway is a small town compared to limerick! you can try add all the towns around galway even 10 miles out like spiddal and oranmore . but Castletroy a suburb of limerick has a population of
nearly 25000 and is not even in the city boundary or raheen,not to mention into clare and and county limerick !!! well what about shannon town and patrickswell and maybe annacotty???? you just can’t argue that!
greater limerick is 100.000 if the boundary extemtion goes ahead .anyway anybody know plans for the 250 acre deveolpment at the shannon docks ? i got a bit of information on http://www.riversidecity.ie if anyne wants to check it out !!!!
Does anybody know is there anymore high rise buildings planned for the limerick docklands ???
just want give two facts that people m,ight not know about limerick city
limerick is the third wealtiest place in ireland after dublin nd kildare !!!!!!
its IS SAFER THAN Cork or DUBLIN!!!
CHEERIO!!!to answer your question about the castletroy by pass
i think it has improved the traffic situation at that side of the city not only to the city but commuters and people who wish to travel onwards to kerry and beyond.
lots of warehousing and retail warehousing is either underconstruction or booming along it.
the downside is waiting for the shannon tunnel to link up with the bypass because there are still thousands of cars going through the city that wish to go to shannon and the rest of clare.So we will have to wait for a few more years…. hope that answers yours question .A lot of people who pass through limerick dont see much of the historic city
because the english town and the historic charming Mary street beside king joh’s castle is hidden from passers by
i would agree with O’Connells st just as a main street and the city is lacking public space or a “centre”Iheard that there is major plans for a open area along bakers place near O’Connells street which is part of the city centre regeneration and pedstrianisation which is been held up until the shannon tunnel is built i think.
The plan is pedresrtrianising part of O’Connells st , baker place and catherdhal st and linking cruises streeti do think Oconnells street really needs a real facelift! let’s hope it will comee soon!
