Tenders sought for Macroom bypass

The council, which is acting as agents on behalf of Transport Infrastructure Ireland (TII), has advertised the proposed move on the Government’s public tendering process, saying it expects construction of the 22km road to take around three years.
The project was approved in 2011 by Bord Pleanála, along with the Compulsory Purchase Orders (CPOs) to acquire the necessary land. The route corridor has already been fenced off.
