Sinnott brands road closure ‘highway robbery’
“On September 2, the barricades will be placed on the N8 Cork to Fermoy Road at Rathcormac and the toll booths for the Fermoy bypass road will be opened and operational. From this moment members of the public will be forced to pay to drive on their own road.
“This stretch of road will be inaccessible to my constituents unless they pay a toll to a private company. The situation could be avoided at no cost if the present road to Rathcormac village is left open instead of being closed off when the toll bridge opens,” she said.
