Galway Harbour Expansion Under Legal Scrutiny

Galway Harbour Expansion Under Legal Scrutiny

Published 1 month, 1 week ago
Description

Galway Harbour’s big expansion plan—aimed at boosting trade, tourism, and creating a new waterfront—is now facing a legal challenge. A local cycling advocate, Shane Foran, has won High Court permission to launch a judicial review, arguing the plan ignores serious safety risks for cyclists and pedestrians, especially during construction when up to 5,300 tonnes of heavy goods vehicles could daily clog city streets without proper infrastructure. The court will now decide if the approval properly assessed these impacts.
