Julianstown

Fermoy bypassed

Martin Cullen opens the Fermoy bypass. Isn't he great! Says it will take 17,000 cars out of Fermoy, Watergrasshill and Rathcormac. According to NRA, that's almost all the traffic. He should come up here to Julianstown, we've got 22,000 vehicles per day to dispose off.

You know they started bypassing the towns on the road to Cork 20 years ago, and after each bypass opened the traffic just got worse further along. Naas-Newbridge-Kildare-Monastrevin-Abbeyleix-
Durrow-Urlingford-Johnstown-Mitchelstown-Rathcormac-
Fermoy-Watergrasshill. If they'd just built a road from Dublin to Cork it would have taken 2-5 years and cost 10 times less, and we'd have it now.

What gives.
