Railway footbridge works in Tipperary declared unauthorised

Iarnród Éireann has run into difficulty with the planning authorities over repairs it carried out to a footbridge over a railway line in Co Tipperary.

A ruling by An Bord Pleanála effectively declared the footbridge works carried out by the State railway company over the Limerick Junction-Waterford line in Carrick-on-Suir were unauthorised.
