Jada Projects has completed the first phase of construction work on a new link road between the Gort Road and Tulla Road in Ennis.
The 520m development in Dulick, Co Clare, links the Gort Road with the Ennis Information Age Park Building and the Clare Technology Park.
Jada Projects completed 450 metres of the roadway which connects to a 70-metre section of road completed by Shannon Commercial Properties.
The works include the provision of public lighting, stone walls, timber post and rail fencing, public utility ducts for ESB and telecommunications, surface water drainage, water supply, signage and lining, a bidirectional 3-metre-wide shared use footpath/cycle path, kerbing and landscaping.
The first phase of the Ennis Northern Road Inner Relief Road link will open tomorrow morning, 17 May.
Pat Dowling, Chief Executive of Clare County Council, commented: "Clare County Council considers the provision of this roadway to be of strategic importance to the development of the town of Ennis. The purpose of this road is twofold in that it will improve traffic flows in the northern area of Ennis town and also provide safe and proper access to Clare Technology Park."
Carmel Kirby, Director of Physical Development, added: "This road is vital for Clare Technology Park and opens it up for further investment, expansion and job creation, continuing the success story that Ennis has become."
