It's very disappointing to hear that Labour supports the Galway City Ring Road - it really feels like they are trying to straddle two horses at once on this one, and that rarely ends well.

It was heartbreaking to hear the stories of the families affected, especially when it is all so unnecessary. And the worst of it is, it is far from over.
Whatever decision An Coimisiún Pleanála makes in the coming months, this saga is likely to continue for years to come, at more cost to the public purse and at more personal cost to both the families affected and to the wider population of Galway.
It must be 15 years since I made a submission on the previous iteration of the Galway ring road which called for smaller incremental improvements rather than relying on a big silver bullet solution. It's taken a long time but I'm glad to see that view going mainstream.

"City officials said while they're constantly working to tweak the traffic network, there's no magic solution to the constraints - except possibly the Galway Ring Road down the line."
