Madam, - I wish to propose that the newly opened bridge on the Drogheda by-pass across the River Boyne be named the T.K. Whitaker Bridge in recognition of this son of Drogheda's pivotal role in so many initiatives that have benefited Irish economic and cultural development.
In particular this bridge gives architectural form to Whitaker's vision of the mutual benefits of the connection between North and South. - Yours, etc.,
J.P. CASSIDY, Rathmullen Road, Drogheda, Co Louth.
