Members Of Public To Shape A5 Project

The A5 Western Transport Corridor dual carriageway scheme is set to be shaped with feedback from the public.

The Department for Infrastructure published A5 Supplementary Environmental Information, which locals have been asked to have their say on.

In November 2022 the Department made available a number of reports as supplementary information to the ESA 2022 with a consultation that concluded on 23 December 2022. Following a request by the Planning Appeals Commission the Department is now making available a report containing layout drawings covering the entire length of the scheme together with longitudinal profiles and cross sections.


The Department encourages anyone with an interest in this significant flagship project to make their views known during this consultation period.  Members of the public can submit their views by letter or email.

All previous representations about the project in response to the consultations of March and November 2022 will be taken into account by the Department and it is not necessary to re-submit them. Any additional representations by way of supplement or amendment must however be submitted to the Department on or before the closing date of this consultation process of 03 March 2023.
