Gardai are implementing a traffic management plan this the weekend to mitigate against anti-social behaviour and deter large crowd gathering at Burrow Beach over the summer months.
Operation Irene is an operation currently being implemented in the Raheny District to mitigate against anti-social behaviour in open areas, local attractions and on all beaches that will attract large crowds over the summer months. Earlier this week locals slammed the "disgusting" scenes on Burrow Beach with in excess of 10 tonnes of litter removed from the beach after massive crowds gathered at the beach on Monday to cool down during the hottest day of the year.
Members of Fingal County Council were out cleaning the beach at 5:30am on Tuesday and it took over six hours to clean with the help of locals. Soiled nappies, glass and plastic were among the waste dumped on the popular beach during the good weather.
