    This will help. The M7 Limerick-Nenagh scheme was plagued with a bog that refused to give.

    They dug one section very deep where the footbridge is near the N17 business park. Did they reach bedrock? And if so how deep was it. Most of the surrounding land the rock is only a couple of meters at most from the surface.
