Galway Bay fm newsroom - Long awaited upgrade works will begin on the Martin roundabout on the east of the city by the end of the year.
Galway City Council has confirmed that detailed design and tender document preparation for the junction is ongoing, with the tenders due to be published by September and construction programmed to start in quarter four of 2021.
The junction will provide primary access to Ardaun at the southern section which will provide bus priority, as well as full pedestrian and cyclist crossing facilities.
It’s being provided as part of an overall plan to develop the Ardaun area for housing.
2.7 million euro in funding has been sanctioned for the Ardaun upgrade of Martin roundabout under the Urban Regeneration and Development Fund.
