A hundred more homes to lose part of gardens to bus corridors
The NTA announced last year a total of 1,300 property owners could lose part of their front gardens under the core bus corridor project. However, in recent months there were indications this figure could rise slightly.
The authority is expected to publish details of the final six corridors on Tuesday afternoon. It has offered one-to-one meetings with affected property owners and is organising information and community forums for the final batch of corridors. The NTA has previously said those affected will lose on average one to two metres of their front garden but that some properties could lose up to four metres. Those affected will receive an average compensation payment of about €25,000.
