Waterford’s Child Safety Crisis | Ireland News

Waterford’s child safety crisis hits hard as a church parking lot—once a lifeline for parents—gets shut down due to dangerous traffic. Safety consultants and insurers forced the move, but blame falls on the government’s delay in rolling out BusConnects Waterford, a vital transit overhaul that could’ve eased congestion and protected kids. Local leaders are furious, calling it discrimination and arguing the Critical Infrastructure Act was meant to fast-track exactly this kind of project. With housing growth and safer cycling routes at stake, parents are scrambling for alternatives like Stride to School or even a river bus. Time is running out—Waterford’s got to be included before more children get hurt. Listen in comfort:Get a discount on a Soli Pillow: http://solipillow.com/discount/dnn.
