N72 Stagmount Bends Road Improvement Scheme Part 8 Public Consultation
The N72 Stagmount Bends Road Improvement Scheme is located 3.5km east of Barraduff and 6.5km west of Rathmore, between the townlands of Gortnahaneboy West and Gortnahaneboy East, Rathmore, Co. Kerry. This road is a National Secondary Route with a 100Kph speed limit. The existing carriageway cross-section is a single carriageway without hard-shoulders and has both a poor horizontal and vertical alignment.
The primary objectives of the scheme are:
- Upgrade 1.15km of the existing section of road to a Type 2 Single (8.0m wide) Carriageway (S2), predominantly off-line.
- Upgrade the existing junction on the western end of the scheme to the area known locally as Ceannearagh.
- Provide a new junction on the western end of the scheme to access the old N72.
- Carry out all other works associated with the scheme.
- Carry out these works having regard to the environment of the area.
