Limerick City Centre Branded Dirtiest Area in Ireland

Limerick City Centre has been named the dirtiest area in Ireland after finishing bottom of the latest Irish Business Against Litter League Table survey, according to a report from Live95. The assessment highlights long‑term neglect in key parts of the city, notably Mount Kennet Place and Parnell Street, where litter accumulation remains persistent.

The league table ranks urban areas across the country based on litter levels and cleanliness initiatives. Limerick’s placement at the bottom signals that the city has struggled to keep pace with other Irish towns and cities in maintaining public spaces. The report does not detail specific causes but points to a pattern of neglect over time, suggesting that routine waste management and community clean‑up efforts may be insufficient.

Local residents have expressed frustration over the persistent litter problem, while council officials have yet to announce any new measures or timelines for improvement. The findings are expected to prompt further discussion among city planners and business groups about how best to address the issue.
