New update on long-awaited Granard bypass project
Longford County Council says the planned N55 Granard Bypass will reduce congestion, improve road safety and ease traffic flow through Granard.
Plans for the proposed N55 Granard Bypass are progressing, with surveys and assessments now underway to identify potential route options for the long-awaited road scheme.
Longford County Council, in partnership with Transport Infrastructure Ireland (TII), are advancing the project with the aim of reducing congestion, improving road safety and easing traffic flow through Granard.
The scheme is currently at the Options Selection stage, during which different potential routes will be examined to determine the most suitable option.
Public consultation will form part of the process as the project develops, giving local residents, businesses and other stakeholders an opportunity to share their views.
