Short-listed route options for new N17 will be revealed this month

THE first refinement of feasible route options for the new N17 Knock to Collooney route has been completed.

The N17 Knock to Collooney (Atlantic Economic Corridor) Project is at Phase 2 (options selection) of the TII Project Management Guidelines.

The Sligo project office has confirmed that the first refinement of feasible route options was completed in July (resulting from the initial preliminary options assessment).

The project office are currently now concluding a process of final design checks and verifications on those short-listed options with a view to making them available for public display/information.

It is intended that these options will be published on https://n17knockcollooney.ie/ before August 20 (Information in relation to the short-listed options will not be made available before this time).

Improvements to the N17 between Knock and Collooney will enhance regional connectivity thereby facilitating and supporting the economy of the Atlantic Economic Corridor (AEC) and the North-West region in general.

The Sligo National Roads Project Office appreciates the public’s continued cooperation and participation in this process.
