Opposition To M28 Planning Next Step Against Cork/Ringaskiddy Motorway
A group opposed to the construction of the M28 say they have been planning their next steps in the wake of An Bord Plenala's decision to give the green light to the Cork/Ringaskiddy motorway.
The M28 Steering Group which represents up to 10,000 residents in the area is considering mounting a judicial review to the decision or taking the matter to Europe
Locals fear the €180 million motorway will have a detrimental impact on their quality of life and will lead to an increase in traffic, noise and air pollution levels
Business leaders have welcomed the upgrade of the M28 as they believe it will lead to a rise in commerical and business links along with economic benefits for people living and working in the region
Speaking to RedFM News Ger Harrington of the M28 Steering Group outlined the next step in their campaign
