Villagers see red over bypass

PICTURESQUE Adare, one of the most sought after residential areas in the country, is caught in a property trap because Limerick County Council has not made up its mind on the route of a proposed bypass, locals claim.

For the last two years, all planning has been refused in a Red Box zone imposed around the village through which the bypass will eventually go.

The Red Box covers about a three-mile radius of Adare.
