N22 Baile Buirne to Macroom Introduction: | Introduction Publications | |
| Cork County Council appointed McCarthy Hyder Consultants in 2001 to undertake a Constraints Study and a Route Corridor Selection Study for the N22 Baile Bhuirne – Macroom – Ballincollig Road Project. This led to the development of a Preferred Route corridor and Emerging Preferred Route for a 46km road development between Baile Bhuirne and Ballincollig.
In 2005, the western part of the Preferred Route, i.e. that section between Baile Bhuirne and Coolcour, was progressed by Cork County Council culminating in the production of an Environment Impact Statement and Compulsory Purchase Order. This 22km section will have the potential, in the future, to link up as part of the longer 46km Preferred Route. However, at this stage, the 22km section is considered a stand-alone project. Design and construction of the remainder of the Preferred Route may be taken forward at a later date, but, this would be subject to a separate assessment. An Bord Pleanála approved the Cork County Council N22 Baile Bhuirne Macroom(Baile Bhuirne to Coolcour) Road Development Compulsory Purchase Order, 2009 with modifications on the 7th April 2011 As Gaeilge - Irish Version | ||
