Waterford-Dublin motorway on schedule for 2010 completion

THE motorway linking Waterford to Dublin remains on schedule for a 2010 completion, with work on the final sections due to start in the coming weeks.

The €1.46 billion road project, one of the largest in the State’s history, has been under way for the past two years and work began on the bridge over the River Suir last year.

According to the National Roads Authority, the contractors will start the final two phases of the motorway before Easter.
