The Cabinet has awarded the contract for the multi-million upgrade of the Dunkettle interchange in Cork to contractors Sisk.

The decision follows a more than a year-long delay on the awarding of the main construction contract after Sisk and Transport Infrastructure Ireland (TII) failed to agree a price on this element of the scheme.
