A Lobby Group Has Described The Planned M20 Cork To Limerick Motorway As 'A Waste Of Taxpayers Money'

The Cork-Limerick Alliance Group say the €900 million motorway is unnecessary

This is due to a proposed motorway between Cahir in Co. Tipperary and Limerick which would link up with the M8 cork to Dublin motorway at Cahir. 

The group says the Cahir to Limerick motorway would cost around €550 million and that the M8 could eaily handle the extra traffic. 

The Irish Examiner reports that the call comes as Cork County Councillors express concerns that the M20 will be completed by 2027.
