Current fuel protests are causing trouble for some Limerick businesses, from delayed food deliveries to missed appointments.

Mike Gleeson of Gleesons Spar, Henry St, says intermittent problems caused by the M7 protests are making it difficult for staff and deliveries to reach Limerick.

One food delivery to the city was delayed by four hours this morning.

Speaking to Live95 News, he called for “common sense” to prevail.

“It’s been challenging. There’s intermittent problems between staff getting to work, customers getting into the city but also deliveries. This morning, one of our food deliveries was late four hours”.

“So hopefully it won’t continue and hopefully common sense will see because this could end up going, you know, not in a good place”.

Meanwhile, a Limerick-based tattoo artist says ongoing protests on the M7 are causing chaos for their business schedule.

Clients are being left waiting which is impacting the amount of work that can be completed and the daily earnings for the studio.

Speaking to Live95 News, Bailey of Sounds of Time Limerick, says this creates a ripple effect that disrupts the pricing and timing of appointments for the entire day.

“Typically, I try to get in for like 10 o’clock to work. And because I’m a tattoo artist, my clients are typically coming in as well, and they’re waiting, you know what I mean? And then I’m just like delayed, and it holds up the whole day and how much we get done and pricing and how much I get to make that day”.
