By Dan Walsh at Gorey Kilmuckridge Municipal District Council meeting
The relocation of the Bus Stop from Main Street in Gorey town was raised again today (Tuesday) at the monthly meeting of Gorey Kilmuckridge Municipal District held in the Council Chamber, Civic Centre. Cathaoirleach Cllr Pip Breen presided.
Cllr Anthony Donohoe raised the matter of relocating the bus stops off the Main Street and he sought information on the matter. He believed that the relocation would be to the Railway Station, as has been mentioned on previous occasions, however, Roads Engineer Joanne Kehoe informed the meeting that the relocation was under review, but consideration is being given to moving the bus stops to the vicinity of Gorey Garda Station.
The matter stays there for the moment, but the District Manager’s (Philip Knight) Report records that a meeting took place between Wexford County Council officials and representatives from Gorey Chamber of Commerce whose members raised several suggestions that they felt may enhance the town. Top of the list was to relocate the bus stops from Main Street to the railway station, but it now appears that the likely relocation is to the Garda Station/Christ Church less active area of Main Street.
The Chamber also suggested to the Council to consider purchasing lands adjacent to Esmonde Street for the provision of car parking, carry out work on Esmonde Street during the night, improve lighting on Paul Funge Boulevard, pursue available land that is currently for sale on The Avenue and improve all footpaths by giving them a thorough clean
