Dual Carriageway : (N5) 19.7 km, Single Carriageway : (N26) 14.8 km.
Total : 34.5 km

With an N5 dual carriageway programmed for Castlebar to Westport, and a new single carriageway for the N26 to Ballina, it makes sense to continue these as far as the north-south Atlantic corridor. This would create a cross with the north-south part running from the N17 up to Ballina, and the east-west part originating at the N17, running west through an intersection with the N26 at the small village of Bohola and onwards to Westport on the west coast.
