Toughers Entrance Road

VincePP

Just got a email from the office - works on a proper road into Toughers commences on Monday.

Whilst the works are taking place entrance and exit to the park will be via the TOP station route, past Kellihers electrical, turn right at Fastlane tyres and then continue on or if you are in the ladytown section, go past NCT centre and continue straight.

Works will take 6 weeks, but entrance section is being priortised.

Finally the craters will be gone.

I wonder did the article recently in the Independant have something to do with it?

No. Tommy Tougher went into Nama. Nama put park up for sale last year, it was stated that the road required extensive work. Deal completed in March, new owners put tender out at end of March, tender choosen mid April, work started Monday.

This video by Kildare Now was mentioned in an article recently (probably the Independent's) which I'm sure didn't do any harm:
