Lewis Road left-turn only by end of summer
By Sean Moriarty
The much awaited left-turn only from the Lewis Road junction and N22 Bypass Road will be completed by the end of the summer.
CHANGE: The junction at the Lewis Road will be left-turn only by the end of summer.
CHANGE: The junction at the Lewis Road will be left-turn only by the end of summer.
That is according to a Kerry County Council official who was responding to a query from Cllr Brendan Cronin.
Cronin asked for an update on the project at Wednesday’s Killarney Municipal District meeting: “following repeated requests over many years”.
The Council official replied: “Tender documents are currently being prepared to procure a contractor to carry out these works as the first of a number of safety improvement phases on the N22 at the Lewis Road and Kilcummin Road junctions. The works to modify Lewis Road junction to left-out only will be carried out in Q3 2022.”
When completed traffic leaving Lewis Road will no longer be allowed to cross the Bypass Road. Instead motorists will have to turn left and make a U-turn at the Cleeney Roundabout.
The same applies to traffic exiting the Kilcummin Road where motorists will have to make their way to the Michael D O’Shea Roundabout at the sports centre before U-turning.
A yet to be specified lane divider will prevent illegal U-turns between each junction.
