Ireland’s longest bridge which crosses the Barrow from Kilkenny into Wexford is officially being opened today.
The New Ross By-pass Bridge has been named after Rose Fitzgerald Kennedy – J-F-K’s mother – and her great-granddaughter Rose Katherine Kennedy Townsend has been invited to do the honours at the opening ceremony.
