The Minister for Transport, Seamus Brennan, opened two major national primary route road developments today.
Mr Brennan opened the N4 Sligo to Dublin road extension near Boyle in Co Roscommon this morning. Major development work has been carried out on the new stretch of the road between Rockingham and Cortober on the Boyle to Carrick on Shannon route.
Mr Brennan also opened a two-lane carriageway on the N5 Westport to Dublin road near Strokestown in Co Roscommon. Eight kilometres of this road have been developed into a two-lane carriageway at a cost of €21m.
The new road goes from Scramogue to Cloonmore on the Strokestown to Longford stretch on the N4.
