FLEXI-BOLLARDS placed in a narrow city centre street have been removed after an outcry by traders.
Limerick City and County Council had erected a number of the plastic dividers in Wickham Street to help further demark the cycle lane from the main road.
But business people in the area were left fuming after it meant that delivery vans – and indeed passing trade – were unable to stop directly outside their shops.
Eleanor Purcell, who runs Limerick’s oldest shop, M Cahill and Co in the street, said the measures would have been “detrimental” to her business.
