| Description: | The N26 Ballina to Bohola Stage 2 scheme consists of 18.1 km of Type 2 dual carriageway extending from Tonybaun to the N5 at Bohola, encompassing a bypass of Foxford. When completed it will replace the existing N26 from Tonybaun to Swinford and the N58 between Foxford and Ballyvary. It will cater for traffic travelling from Ballina and North Mayo to Dublin, Castlebar and Galway. This scheme is being reviewed following the An Bord Pleanála decision in February 2010 to refuse to approve the scheme. Progression of this scheme through the planning phases has been suspended.
This project has been funded by the Irish Government under the National Development Plan and by the European Union from the European Regional Development Fund. |
