N25 closure at Cork's Dunkettle to be lifted 'several hours ahead of schedule' 

In an update from the Dunkettle crew on Saturday afternoon, works have been "progressing well with earthworks now complete, and paving works underway."

Essential works on the Dunkettle's N25 westbound diverge to the roundabout have lead to major traffic delays in and around Cork city on Saturday. 

The diverge was closed on Friday at 9pm and was set to reopen on Sunday at midday.
