THE Parish Priest of Moyross says people in the area feel “abandoned, cheated and used” by Transport Minister Eamon Ryan over a €58m road-link.
Fr Pat Hogan says locals in the northside community feel “a sense of betrayal” after the Green Party leader failed to fully commit to the Northern Distributor Road project.
One element of this, linking Coonagh and Knockalisheen, is seen as vital for Moyross and has cross-community support.
Local councillors and the Limerick Chamber have also piled the pressure on Mr Ryan, saying the road is crucial in opening up Moyross so it’s no longer a cul-de-sac, and providing employment to the area.
