The road link from N4-N3 used to follow much the same route as the metro and was intended to connect the junction at Woodies Lucan to the Blanchardstown Road at the back of Power City, I dont know when that changed as an objective but it certainly didnt get as much publicity as it should have. That said, the Littlepace - Ongar link road was left with plenty of reservation space for widening in future.

I think you'd struggle to find a better spot for greenfield housing for 4,500 people.

sop 1. a thing of no great value given or done as a concession to appease someone whose main concerns or demands are not being met.
