The route for a new 80km dual carriageway road between Cork to Limerick was announced today.
The N/M20 road promises to improve bus times between the two cities by up to 30 minutes as well as a direct hourly train service, with no changeover at Limerick Junction, and an 80km Greenway.
The preferred road will travel north from Cork passing Blarney and Grenagh and will bypass east of Mallow and Buttevant. It will then swing west bypassing Charleville before joining the current M20 motorway to Limerick at Patrickswell.
