  • Lough-Beg-Wetlands-A6-Road-103190.Pdf
    Disrespecting 'everyday miracles and the living past' The Lough Beg wetlands are magnificent If you stand on Aughrim Hill or visit Church Island, you will be touched by this ancient and beautiful landscape, and most likely you will be alone. The Lough Beg wetlands are hidden from view and, apart from the calls of Whooper swans and other birds, they are silent. Until now. It is a matter of urgent concern that a motorway is proposed for these wetlands. It is “a terrible mistake, one that in future years will seem as incomprehensible as it is careless”1. This road poses an unfathomable threat. It will rise high above existing ground level to forever fragment and ‘desecrate’ this landscape. Drawing in other developments in its wake, the serenity and ecology of this once intact wetland will become industrialised and we will have lost a global treasure. This is an urgent briefing, a final appeal to our government to urgently review this section of road, to revise the Environmental Impact Assessment and not to take any further decision until we have a new government and an elected Minister in place. We also appeal to the international community to help save this global treasure. This is urgent because the government seems determined to push this through. As we write this briefing we do not have a government. There is a legal challenge taken by Chris Murphy that may succeed but the High Court is not permitted to look at the merits of the case. The context behind our concerns: Why this route when there are better alternatives? There are much better alternatives to this 4 miles of route and these other options were not properly considered.
