Ringaskiddy Motorway Gets Greenlight

Plans are advancing for the creation of a 200 million euro motorway joining Ringaskiddy with the Jack Lynch Tunnel. The National Roads Authority and Cork County Council are expected to submit finalised plans for the 14km road to Bord Pleanála within 12 to 18 months. The news has been welcomed by the Port of Cork which plans to expand services in Ringaskiddy which have been previously hampered by an inadequate local roads network. The NRA has already designed plans for a major upgrade of the tunnel interchange and the Port of Cork's upgrading plans for Ringaskiddy are set to be submitted to planning authorities by April.
