Bypass must be rerouted to protect Viking site
Mr Roche said yesterday that, under the National Monuments Act, he has issued directions to Waterford City Council requiring the protection of the site at Woodstown, discovered in April 2003, which is on the route of the N25 bypass.
The discovery was made after an Environmental Impact Statement had been furnished and after approval had been granted for the road by An Bord Pleanála.
