A link road off the Athenry by-pass connecting Athenry Presentation College will open next week.
Galway East TD Seán Canney said that he and councillor Gabe Cronnelly have received confirmation from Galway County Council of the imminent opening of the link road.
“This is good news for Athenry and the Presentation College,” the Independent TD said.
“The road through the IDA land will allow for safe access to the school and also eliminate traffic congestion at the Raheen Woods Hotel entrance.”
“Both myself and Cllr Gabe Che Cronnelly have worked tirelessly to get the road open to allow vital access to the school.”
Deputy Canney thanked the county council as well as the Department of Education and Skills for getting this project completed.
“We look forward to better traffic movement and free flow of traffic at this very busy location in Athenry.”
