But somehow I find it unacceptable that nothing has been done. This town should not have DC level traffic going down it's mainstreet. It's the main road to the SW and it has traffic higher than any section of N6,7,8.
There are thousands of cars making rat runs to avoid Adare at times.
In the summer months it's just estatic.
...now, did you look hard for this by-pass - me thinks it might be one that requires a 4x4 in order to use it!!!

It will commence once the M20 is funded for. Going by the PPP process it would be lucky if this was to start before 2020.
As you know it's not going to be much of a bypass more of a detour than anything else.
Not only was this winding route avoiding local roads but it also bypassed the big detached houses in the Adare area. These little things cost at least €400,000 a pop. The market there is quite literally through the roof. CPOing would have been expensive if the route was more direct.
Techy this is why the world has gone mad!
It seems money is the god these days, to the obsessive level. Yet we are trapped in an illusion or delusion depending on which way you want to look at it, there's no money.
Where did it go?
I mean if it dissappeared where too.

You keep on about your conspiracy theories here. It's really not the forum for it. I'm suss of the whole political and financial establishment as well but here is not the place. Whether or not the whole system is rigged is sort of irrelevant-that's the rigged system we seem to operate in and in that system there is no money.mysterious wrote: »Where did it go?

In this particular case the money never existed in IRELAND, we borrowed it all (via Irish banks) from overseas to buy property with. That property is now largely worthless and the few people who 'cashed out' before the collapse have all the money.
I personally know people who sold up in 2007 and began renting because they saw a crash coming. They are now beginning to look at property again (some properties at half the 2007 asking price!).
The money didn't disappear-people have it somewhere but it's their money now, not the state's money to build roads with so it's a moot point. The state has no money.
We should hack the public sector wage bill down and not touch infrastructural spending unless absolutely necessary but it would take a brave govt to do that.0 -

...the rich - I'd simply abolish all expenses against tax in order to make the rich pay - many of whom are good for nothing spongers! :mad: With expenses gone, there'd probably be far less need for cutbacks then!
Anyway, you're right: money is just an illusion!
