Tara and the motorway
Dear sir - Colr. Nick Killian`s recent remarks regarding
the protestors working to stop the M3 from destroying the
Tara-Skryne Valley demonstrate the unfortunate ignorance
that is pervasive among elected officials these days.
The M3 scheme is primarily designed to put more cars on
the road in order to generate revenue - if Meath County
Council were truly concerned with helping commuters they
would adopt the Meath Master Plan.
Even at this late stage it will still save taxpayers
money, and protect the priceless Tara-Skryne Valley.
It is laughable that the NRA continues to publicize that
any delay in the construction will incur an additional
cost of €300,000 per week - this is only true if it
continues to blunder down this completely foolish and
unsustainable path.
The people of Meath (and the rest of the world) deserve
better.
Yours,
Charles Burgess,
