Dublin and Cork are finally linked by motorway


Dublin and Cork are finally linked by motorway

The National Transport authority recently announced to Dublin news media that upgrades to the final stretch of motorway between Cork and Dublin will be opened in 2010, brining to completion a massive infrastructure investment.

The massive upgrade of 250 kilometers of motorway and highway between Dublin and Cork is almost complete, linking the capital with the second largest city in the country.

Up until now the road has been divided up into sections classified as motorway standard with dual carriageways and less efficient single carriageways, which have long created bottle necks and stress for road users.
