The N25 Waterford Bypass was opened in October 2009. Inexplicably, it was not designated motorway, though it was built to the right spec. It is even a toll road, which makes it unusual as there are few precedents in Ireland for tolling a non-motorway road. An upgrade to motorway would protect the scheme from inappropriate development alongside and be a more appropriate treatment of the infrastructure. No physical changes would be required. | ||||
