    I think so too. I guess the major positive to take is that the road is opening as far as Danefort instead of just Knocktopher which by default eliminates Thomastown, Stoneyford and Gowran for most motorists. Not to mention Ballyhale, Knocktopher and Mullinavat.


    great hate the sight of those dreary places hope it opens soon quicker the better..........

    Mid Feb we were told but going on past dates I think this slip again as the weather has been so atrocious.
    Those villages/towns are nice in their own right but as regards having traffic pouring through them in this day and age it is just not on. No one mourns the passing of Castledermot in the past month.

    At last it seems to be happening. Delighted for anyone forced to use the N9 daily.

    At the Carlow side, they are installing a roundabout on the N10 in Paulstown for the link to the new M9.

    Fantastic we're getting closer to the opening :D

    They're working day and night on the section near me so they're obviously keen to get it finished asap.

    Can't wait, I'll finally be able to cycle that road without fear a truck is going to clean me out of it.

    The trip up to Dunne's Stores in Carlow should be very quick then.

    No need to since they got planning permission to build one on the Carlow road!

    Wouldn't it be great if Dunnes got a contract to build at all the service/rest areas...
