Residents of the Montpelier development on the site of the former O’Devaney Gardens flats in Dublin are caught up in a parking dispute, with the development’s underground car park still inaccessible.

Joining Andrea to discuss is CEO of Ray Cooke Auctioneers Ray Cooke, Fine Fáil Cllr & Chair of the Dublin Central Area Committee John Stephens, as well as listeners.
