Waterloo junction could be open by Christmas

Locals protesting the closure of the Waterloo junction on the Mallow Road, Co Cork.

According to Cork County Council’s recently-appointed head of transportation Aidan Weir, local authority engineers are almost ready to deliver a plan devised in conjunction with Transport Infrastructure Ireland which will recommend implementing a left turn in/out system at the Waterloo Junction.

It had been the scene of numerous crashes in recent times including one which claimed the lives of two tourists.
