Upgrading of the N4 and N5 Roads Infrastructure: Discussion

10:20 am

Dr. Brian McCann:

There will be goods traffic and people who have to stop behind the tailbacks, which will be mostly goods traffic, will end up being delayed on those routes. This is likely to have an impact on the N4. Therefore, we are talking about a problem of increased traffic not just on the N4 but around Sligo and onwards into Donegal. The whole length of the N4 will likely be the route of choice for many businesses and people who are travelling.
