Make-over plans to make city shopper-friendly

LIMERICK traders have joined forces with the city council to transform the city’s shopping thoroughfares.

At present Bedford Row is undergoing a €2.6 million make-over and it will be pedestrianised when it reopens next June.

It is hoped that a bronze statue of Richard Harris will be unveiled on the new street on the opening day. Bedford Row is the latest street to be pedestrianised and Lower Thomas Street is next on the list.
