The construction of the proposed link road was not a condition of Planning. Rather the Planning Permission required that my Department provide plans to show the future link to the lands to the rear of the proposed inner-relief road. These links shall be provided when/if future development is permitted on the lands to the north-east of the site which are in the ownership of the Minister for Education and Science.

As part of the Department's planning compliance, it was asked to provide two number wayleaves measuring 10m each to the south eastern and north western boundaries for future roadways. It is a matter for Wexford County Council to determine which road, if any, will be constructed as part of any future development on the lands to the north-east of the site in question.
