Three years at least before substantial work done on Bonagee Link


Letterkenny Municipal District has been told it will be at least three years before any substantial work is done on the Bonagee Link, and the delay should be used to ensure the final route meets future needs.
During a lengthy discussion on the issue, Cllr Liam Blaney told members that Letterkenny is projected to grow by 20,000 people in the coming years.
If the proposed route is maintained as is, he believes, the new bridge will be in the middle of the town, and people will be looking for another new bridge within twenty years.
Cllr Blaney says the prediction of movement on the new road by 2021 is optimistic, and it’s likely to be the middle of the next decade before any substantial work is done:
