‘We will not tolerate this’ Northside residents protest at city waste depot

Residents who blockaded one of Cork city’s largest waste depots plan to ramp up their campaign to get it closed.

“We will be back. We will not tolerate this,” Northside Says No To Rubbish campaigner, Maurice Sheehan said.

He was speaking after about 30 residents blocked the access road to the Country Clean Recycling Depot in Churchfield, on the northside of the city, to highlight rat and odour problems they blame on the facility.
