Monkstown Ring Road Protest Picket

Next Monday , Oct 9 , a peaceful Protest/Picket will be placed at the town hall in Dun Laoghaire where a council meeting will be taking place .

The main item on the agenda is to be the attempted rubber stamping of the highly unpopular Monkstown Ring Road.

On the County development plan for the past 30 years, its imminent O/K would devastate a settled community rending it in two and mean that over 30 mature trees will fall to the chain saws.

Support from some Councillors is assured but a noisy picket with whistles, pots and pans , dustbins etc may encourage some wavering ones to get on side.
