After years of neglect, the tide may finally be turning in favour of Dun Laoghaire Harbour.
Dun Laoghaire Rathdown County Council (DLRCoCo) has commissioned a new €100k report into the 200-year-old harbour, asking economic consultants Indecon to provide a blueprint for its improved use.
This report s timing couldn t be better because since the cross-channel ferry left in 2015 - after almost 200 continuous years of operation - the harbour and the county s 17-km south Dublin coastline has had an uncertain time.
