Cabinet has given the green light today for the €456 million M28 Cork to Ringaskiddy motorway, insisting it will “immediately progress to the construction phase”.

The scheme, which secured planning in 2018, involves the construction of approximately 11km of motorway from the N40 Bloomfield Interchange to Barnahely near the Port of Cork, with a 1.5km single carriageway protected road linking to the eastern side of Ringaskiddy.
