Tue 08 Aug 2008Over 95% of concrete rubble from Ballymun flats to be reused
MORE THAN 95 per cent of the concrete rubble created by the demolition of flat blocks in Ballymun has been reused elsewhere, according to contractors working on the project.
To date, 14 of the 36 high-rise buildings have been razed to make way for new developments in the north Dublin suburb and new figures have indicated that by the end of the current phase of demolition about €15 million will have been spent on knocking down 20 of the condemned blocks.
