Vigil Light is Focus of Opposition
Despite repeated attempts by the Office of Public Works (OPW) to move them on the tara Solidarity Vigil remain camped out on the Hill of tara. They have become a focus of opposition to plans to build a new motorway (M3) through the tara valley. As opposition grows they have received increasing messages of support not just from Ireland but around the world also. Norwegians, in particular, have taken a keen interest in developments on the Hill due to a sense of shared history they have with Ireland.
If you would like to visit them they are tucked discretely away in the trees below Rath Graine and would appreciate your support. Also as the date for the construction of the motorway gets nearer they will be developing a website to get keep people infomred of developments. If you have any material you think is relevant to the Hill of tara and the campaign against the new motorway please forward it to the following email address: contact@tarasolidarityvigil.net
