‘We won’t accept it’
Anger from landowners in North Louth over proposed Greenway Route By Paul Byrne OBJECTORS to the proposed Dundalk Bay to Carlingford Greenway gathered outside County Hall in Dundalk on Monday to voice their anger over the proposed routes that they claim will have hugely negative affects on their lives. The proposed greenway will seek to connect with the existing Carlingford Lough Greenway, facilitating a continuous cross-border greenway from Dundalk in Co. Louth to Newry in County Down. Close to 100 people stood outside County Hall carrying ‘No To Greenway’ signs as councillors and Louth County County officials attended the monthly meeting of Louth County Council. Matthew McGreehan a representative for Louth in the Irish Farmers Association was one of those objectors and he says there is anger in North Louth over the way they have been dealt with by those involved with the Greenway project.
