    I see the work has started on the Point turnoff & Bundoran intersection.
    No traffic delays so far but seems to be mainly doing clearing work at the moment. (Looks to be cutting into part of the garden of the house on the corner).

    I see they're clearing across the road from there.

    Does anyone know where the plans can be seen?

    What exactly is the point of all this? Really? I'm having nightmares about it thinking how much a mess was made of adding a bit of a footpath just up the road.

    Whats going on over at the government buildings between Aldi and Lidl? The roadworks seem to be going on for months,I'm sure Lidl and Aldi aren't too happy about it as it has to be effecting business!

    They're re-aligning the junction. It's taking forever because..... well, It's Sligo.

    I can't understand why they aren't putting in a roundabout here. It's been a disaster of a junction for as long as I can remember. A small bit of realignment would allow Duck Street junction, R291 and N16 to all meet a the roundabout. You could put traffic signals there too to balance traffic access when required and turn them off when not required.
