Temporary foot crossing for ‘shabby’ Salmon Weir Bridge raises safety concerns
The 207-year-old bridge was described as looking “very shabby” by City East councillor, Terry O’Flaherty (Ind), in a meeting of Galway City Councillors this week.
The Salmon Weir Bridge
The foundation stone for this bridge was laid on June 29, 1818, by William Le Poer Trench and the structure was completed the following year. The original purpose was to connect the new County Courthouse with the County Gaol on Nuns' Island. It is a fine gently humped five-span bridge which was originally known as ‘The New Bridge’ or ‘Gaol Bridge’.
