Cork flyovers will save 30 minutes

FLYOVERS which will be built at two of Cork’s most notorious bottlenecks this year will save motorists at least 30 minutes at peak times.

It is hoped that contracts for the construction of the flyovers at the Sarsfield road and Bandon road roundabouts on the N25 south ring road will be awarded within weeks.

It follows confirmation from the Government that some €877 million is to be spent on the National Roads Programme.
