Council to fight back over bus lane

NEW battle-lines were drawn yesterday between the Fine Gael-controlled Limerick City Council and council management over a proposed bus lane from Dooradoyle to the city centre.

Management at City Hall have stated the bus lane is going ahead and €2.4 million has been earmarked for the work.

However, after a meeting of the FG councillors at the weekend, they yesterday said they are now planning a motion under Section 140 of the Local Government Act to thwart the plan by management.
