Infrastructure & Commuting & Transport

Ponster · 2008-07-28 08:43:43

It's a Monday at the end of July which means there are only 25 of us in the office rather than the usual 150 so I get time to make threads that could really only be made by someone with too much time on their hands.

It's a Monday at the end of July which means there are only 25 of us in the office rather than the usual 150 so I get time to make threads that could really only be made by someone with too much time on their hands.

I've noticed a lot of overlap between these 2 forums concerning road networks.

From Infrastructure:

The M/N8 Upgrade: a thread to chart its progress
M6 To Athlone
New M1 raod signs - complete waste of money

From Commuting & Transport:

N8 - Cashel - Mitchelstown
M3 railway bridge at Cannistown seems to be missing
M8 - Mitchelstown to Fermoy
Newlands (N7/R113) to start soon?

Is there a sense in keeping these forums separate ?

Victor has a rant posted somewhere with a bunch of reasons for them being seperate.

I'm sure there are some good reasons

This recent thread seems to be asking about the same thing:

Some rationalisation may be in order.

Infrastructure is about the planning and physical manifestation of projects while Commuting/Transport is complaining about the failure of same once completed.
