It needs to be named after someone that has really done something for the town

The public should name the bridge not some ignorant councilor after a free lunch with the Kennedy family. Run a competition.

Enough of the Kennedy`s. It was patronising to even say you were giving the public a say, and then went and named it after Rose Kennedy anyway. A bit of common sense and erect a huge statue of William Marshall (the greatest knght, and founder of the town) have every young boy in Ireland excited to visit New Ross for history reasons!

The Kennedy connection is over done, how many Americans were in New Ross on July 4th? Hardly any!

Rose Kennedy had absolutely nothing to do with New Ross, surely there's enough places named Kennedy as it is, give the people a say.

Rose Kennedy’s people were from Limerick and Cavan, and her father married his second cousin. So what has she to do with New Ross, other than marrying a serial adulterer with some roots there?

It should be named after Bridget Murphy the granfmother of them all and a great Irish name. She also was from Cloonagh Gussrrane.

Forget about linking everything in New Ross to the Kennedys! Keep it simple, Pink Rock Bridge.
