Council Announce Realignment Works On N4 |
|
Sligo County Council have announced that funding has been secured for a programme of re-alignment works.
The 'N4 Ardloy Road Realignment scheme' began on the 27th August 2012. The cost of the project will be over €1.6 million, and the main Contractors are Harrington Concrete and Quarries.
The N4 Ardloy Road Realignment scheme is approximately 1.1km long and is located approximately 3km north of Castlebaldwin village on the N4 National Primary Road. The construction of the road improvement scheme will take place both online and offline within existing green field areas. The proposed scheme consists of the following elements:
- - - - - - Advertisement - - - - - - •Widening of the existing road carriageway to an S2 standard.
•Improvement of 1 no priority junction
•Excavation of existing road
•Excavation of land adjacent to existing road
•Drainage and ancillary roadworks
•Culverting and attenuation works
•Disposal/recovery of unacceptable roadworks materials
•Diversion of assets of authorities, utilities and service providers
•Road markings and signing works
•Fencing and safety barrier systems
•Road Pavement and earthworks
•Access and accommodation works
•Landscaping
•Traffic Management
Providing a greater level of road safety is the key objective of this project. The existing sub standard geometry of this particular stretch of road is a major contributor to the number and severity of the accidents, and this provides an environment where vehicles are travelling too fast for the condition of the existing road.
