Out to sacrawalsh(clovass), on to the link road back to Ballydawmore and then on to the super-highway? or out the Kiltealy road(monart), back to clovass, back to Ballydawmore and then on to the road to heaven? It all seems very long-winded to me, I know it'll effectively wipe Enniscorthy off the map but even the odd scalder wants to head to the big schmokee every now and again especially now that the boom is back(allegedly). Sure there's nothing like leaving at 4 in the morning in January for €75-100 a day, nothing like it...

THE WEXFORD branch of the IFA were out in force with placards at Scarawalsh last week to highlight a dispute over lands ring-fenced under a compulsory purchase order for the Enniscorthy bypass. Despite the fact that the land was fenced off last year and diggers have moved onto the land and begun work, the IFA and the Landowner Roads Group say that not only have the two farmers who own the land not yet been paid, but that a fee has not even been agreed for the purchase of the land by Wexford County Council and Transport Infrastructure Ireland (TII) which is the new name for the NRA. Farmers from all over the locality gathered on the road at Scarawalsh to show their support for the two farmers – Mark and Gareth Browne – who say they just want to get the matter sorted as a matter of urgency. Director of Services Eamonn Hore was quick to point out that of the 201 landowners effected by the Enniscorthy bypass, 195 have been fully sorted. He said that of the six remaining, three are road bed, meaning they are quite small, one has gone to independent arbitration, one is likely to go to independent arbitration and while their is some dispute in the final case, it is also likely that it will be put to an independent arbitrator. “Unfortunately there are always a small handful of incidents like this on every scheme,” said Mr Hore. “Obviously everyone would like to see it solved without it going to arbitration, but that’s what it’s there for. I’m not too sure why there’s been a protest, as this type of thing wouldn’t be too unusual. The council and TII would have their valuers and the farmers would have theirs. In theory the next step is to send the matter to independent arbitration and work to the agreed formula between the IFA and TII.”
