The tolled Motorway through the tara and Skryne Valley should not be built for two main reasons. 1) It will destroy our heritage and 2) it will soon become a White Elephant. Instead, Dunshaughlin, Navan and Kells should be bypassed and the existing N3 road should be widened. This would be more than sufficient to deal with the traffic. The National Roads Authority (NRA) forecasts for the traffic levels and the total number of cars in Ireland are flawed because they do not take into account the looming issue of Peak Oil. The growth for the number of cars is based on the rising population, GNP and a rising car per capita rate. This was a reasonable assumption up to now, but Peak Oil changes everything and this continued growth is very unlikely to come to pass.

Mr Dunne admitted he was disappointed with the decision but insisted the action was never taken to block the M50 motorway but as a protest against the Government’s “anti-heritage legislation“. His spokesman added: “Many of us are close to financial ruin because of these court actions. But we feel good about what we have done and we feel the Irish people will understand.” Mr Dunne said he was now focusing his attention on plans to build a section of the M3 motorway close to the Hill of tara in Co Meath. read full story / add a comment |
