J0721 : Irish M1 under construction

near to Meigh and Edentober, Ireland

Irish M1 under construction
Irish M1 under construction
The M1 (Irish Republic) runs from Dublin to Dundalk; whilst the M1 (Northern Ireland) runs from Belfast to Lisburn with the A1 dual carriageway extending southwards to Newry. The N1 in the gap between Dundalk and Newry is a singularly unpleasant length of single carriageway. A new section of motorway seen here is currently under construction just north of the border (there are no plans to replace the section north of Newry with motorway). Wikipedia LinkExternal link quotes the completion of this length as second quarter of 2007, but judging from this photo (shown here crossing the main Dublin to Belfast railway line) that somehow seems unlikely.
