I'm involved in a project that's getting re-plastered externally as the external render didn't meed a certain quality. It's a year later it's getting fixed. Not the same size but similar principle. Also I thought national roads including the N5 road are under the control at national level and Mayo County Council wouldn't have any input into it's maintenance. They're responsible for local roads. I know the standards and quality required for national roads are much higher than secondary roads. The other option is they're upgrading the road before it's downgraded.
