Project Description 

The N59 Westport to Mulranny Road Scheme consists of the improvement of approximately 25.2km of the N59 National Secondary Road between Westport and Mulranny. The length of the road project is 21.3km, of which 1.6km are off‐line sections at two locations, Rossow Bends and Barleyhill.
