    This one is not in Limerick but at the Northen end of the New Newry Bypass which is nearly complete

    http://www.belfasttelegraph.co.uk/news/local-national/new-belfastnewry-dual-carriageway-dug-up-as-subsidence-delays-opening-14796612.html
    Both lanes of the newly completed Belfast-Newry carriageway have had to be dug up after they began to subside, the Belfast Telegraph can reveal.

    and
    “The location is one where very soft ground conditions existed and substantial volumes of peat were removed.
    “Subsequent investigations indicate that small volumes of soft material still exist below the new carriageway and is the source of the problem.

    "small volumes" , hmmm. Indeed!
