Works to tackle lethal pooling on Cork flyover

Engineers are set to tackle potentially lethal water pooling at a flyover which opened just three years ago on one of the country’s busiest roads.

The upgrades to the Sarsfield Road flyover on Cork’s N40 South Ring Road are scheduled to get under way this weekend.

It was one of two new overpasses which opened on the N40 in 2014. However, it has been blighted with water pooling and ponding after heavy downpours.
