One of Cork City's busiest roads is to get a €2.4 million extension to ease traffic congestion
At Monday's Council meeting Councilors approved the 750-metre extension to the westbound approach to Mahon junction 10 on the N40 South Ring Road near Jacob’s Island project after they got assurances from Transport Infrastructure Ireland
The Irish Examiner reports that the TII will examine the safety and overall operational efficiency of the existing Jacob’s Island junction, and will implement whatever is required in a timely manner.
The off-ramp extension, which has been designed to prevent queuing on the N40 hard shoulder, is being fully funded by TII.
