    Thanks.

    Yes, M4/M6 all the way to Athlone, but the road from there to Roscommon doesn't look as good as the road from Longford to Roscommon.

    Athlone to Roscommon isn't bad really, its fairly wide in most area's and its a fairly comfortable drive. Any obstructions (tractors etc) usually keep into the hard shoulder with sufficient room to get around them.
