ROADS ACT 1993 TO 2015 – SECTION 75 EXTENSION OF TEMPORARY CLOSURE OF RATHBEALE ROAD, SWORDS,  CO. DUBLIN

Following an application from Jons Civil Engineering Company Limited, Fingal County Council made an order for the temporary closure of Rathbeale Road, (from its junction with Ardcian Park and the new proposed junction at Oldtown/Mooretown), Swords, Co. Dublin. Initially the road was to be closed from 12th August 2019 to the 20th December 2019 to facilitate the construction of the Rathbeale Road Upgrade Scheme.
