A name for new Liffey bridge

Sir, – Many Irish people deserve recognition by giving their name to the new Liffey Bridge

Sir, – Many Irish people deserve recognition by giving their name to the new Liffey Bridge. But surely few deserve recognition more than Mary and Martin McAleese?

The extraordinary McAleese presidency was inspired by the very theme of bridge-building.

A chara, – The good people of Dublin are quite capable of giving a name to something. I am reminded of the “Floozie in the Jacuzzi”, the “Chime in the Slime” and the “Nail in the Pale”. The new bridge across the Liffey (that 45 per cent of us will never set foot on) will be Dubbed in due course. – Is mise,
