    thanks for advice. but can you explain what effect on Malahide there will be, as clicking on link does not open anything.

    • This has now been corrected and the following added above the meeting notice and map.

    Fantastic. What great progress we’re making in renewable energy. Let’s hope it happens ASAP.

    • Thanks Mark.

      For clarity this post is to highlight an aspect of the proposal to put in cabling that will lead to massive and unnecessary disruption for several years to lay the cables, whenever it comes to that.

      The Forum is only focusing on the Cabling proposal through Malahide. There are plenty of other viable, less costly and less disruptive options. Two are listed below:

      – take the cable directly across the lands from estuary road, to the west of the rugby club, around the Feltrim quarry, across lands that can’t be developed, due to airport overflight, then onto Belcamp.
      – align with the Metro North infrastructure dig and run the cabling alongside
