I’m in two minds about this one.
The BBC reports that the Ulster Architectural Heritage Society are intending to take Translink to court in a bid to stop the demolition of the Boyne Bridge in Belfast as part of the latter’s plans to develop the area immediately adjacent to the new Grand Central Station.
Whilst part of me sees Translink mimicking CIE’s status as a property development company with the inconvenience of a public transport network attached, I can’t necessarily see that the bridge requires preservation and if it is worthy of preservation, does it absolutely need to be preserved at that location?
