A key improvement scheme along the N24 Limerick to Waterford Road is set to move forward.

Limerick City and County Council has made a Compulsory Purchase Order to acquire the land and extinguish rights of way necessary to develop the Beary's Cross Road project.

Under the scheme, the council will work with its project team to deliver a new roundabout controlled junction, alter the present junction layout, and build a new regional road R513 approach to the junction.

Further works include the alteration of the existing N24 approaches to the junction, road and drainage impact attenuation, fencing, landscaping, public lighting, accommodation works and associated site works through the townlands of Cloghnadromin, Sandylane and Tobermalug.

There are 17 landholdings on the scheme and the landowners have all received statutory notices, along with lessees and occupiers.

The closing date for receipt of objections by An Bord Pleanála is 5.30pm on Friday 08 May, 2020.
