It cost over €100 million but now a section of the N56 in Co Donegal, which was known for its bends, has been transformed into a smooth roadway which opens up this part of west Donegal in more ways than one.
The stretch of approximately 26km from An Clochán Liath to Glenties was officially opened this afternoon.
It was delivered in five phases over ten years with various design engineering consultants and contractors involved in the work which was managed by the Donegal National Roads Office and Transport Infrastructure Ireland regional teams. Mr Chambers also said that the investment in this road underlines the Government's commitment to both enhancing road safety initiatives and improving quality of life for people and communities in rural Ireland.
