Got a response from kilkenny Co Co, since this doesn’t by pass a town, it’s not gonna happen any time soon unfortunately. Not their decision but from central government. Looks like I’ll be staying on the back roads to avoid the auld wans holding up the road and dropping to 50km/h for the bends for many more years.

Eamon Ryan doesn't like big roads so unfortunately it does have to remain on the back burner. It doesn't matter that people are getting killed on this section of road that TII had clearly flagged for improvement, or that it's busier now that it's sandwiched between two dual carriageways, it has to wait for new leadership at the Department of Transport.

Yeah, this one sadly is an Eamonn Ryan holdup. Get him out (will he be reshuffled in December? I bloody hope so) and we can get things like this one back on the agenda.

No, although FFG will shuffle and play musical Cabinet chairs, the Greens there are keeping their bums firmly on the seats they're on.
