N19 Shannon Airport Access Road Improvement Scheme

Final Design Update

Clare County Council is progressing the development of the N19 Shannon Airport Access Road Improvement Scheme in partnership with Transport Infrastructure Ireland and the Department of Transport. Fehily Timoney and Clandillon Civil Consulting Joint Venture are the appointed Technical Advisors to advance the project through the planning and design stages. The project is being managed by the Mid West National Road Design Office on behalf of Clare County Council.

Design Update No. 1, that was published in March 2023, included a combination of active travel measures for walking and cycling, facilities to improve public transport, along with new and improved road infrastructure between Drumgeely roundabout and Knockbeagh Point roundabout on approach to Shannon International Airport.

Since the conclusion of Design Update No. 1, the design team has been further progressing the design and environmental evaluation of the Preferred Option. The design of the Preferred Option has now been finalised following extensive stakeholder engagement and detailed consideration of environmental surveys, transport surveys and ground investigations.

Design Update drawings are now available for viewing on the project website www.shannonaccess.ie, with hardcopy maps on display at Clare County Council’s Head Office in Ennis and Shannon Municipal District Office.
