Controversy - Galway City Council agrees by vote of their Councillors, that this Lynch Roundabout, should be replaced by a Traffic - Lighted system. (June 2011). Oddly, the people on the ground are not at all satisfied that the conversion of the French Roundabout, was successful at all - even with the diminished traffic usually associated with a Recession. The Money for Traffic Light conversion has a green light.
See Videos of the current Lynch, and a projected Model - offering a likeness to the physical structures.
Let's hope that this doesn't become known as "Lynch's Folly, Mark II", where the Folly will be attributed to the names of the Councillors with Lynch being incidental.
December 2011 - Conversion to Traffic Lights, largely completed. So what is it going to be called henceforth?
