Residents who lost a legal challenge to An Bord Pleanala’s grant of approval for a 14km-long M28 motorway between Cork and Ringaskiddy have been told they cannot bring an appeal.

Mr Justice Michael MacGrath in the High Court refused the umbrella group representing local residents, the M28 Steering Group, leave to appeal to the Court of Appeal.
