Description
The N25 New Ross bypass involves the construction of approximately 16km of new road on sections of both the N25 and N30 roads in Ireland. The N25 road forms part of the comprehensive TEN-T (Trans European Transport) network. The project will be procured as a PPP. The concessionaire will be required to design, build, finance, operate and maintain the aforementioned sections of road for an expected period of 25 years upon construction completion.
Objectifs
The bypass will remove a major bottleneck on the N25 route, improving access from the cities of Cork and Waterford to the port of Rosslare, Ireland’s busiest port outside Dublin. It will also link the N25 with the N30 New Ross to Enniscorthy road.
Commentaires
The project may be the first implementation of the Project Bond Initiative in Ireland.
