Cork's Jack Lynch Tunnel revamp set to be disruptive

It will be “challenging” to prevent major disruption for commuters during the €100m upgrade of the busiest road junction outside Dublin, admits Transport Infrastructure Ireland (TII).

TII spokesman, Sean O’Neill, said that the revamp of the Jack Lynch Tunnel/Dunkettle interchange will also require notifications to motorists, when work starts on the project in 2019.

The junction is at over-capacity. 100,000 vehicles use it each day.
