Covid 19 restrictions have delayed work on a major Maynooth road, a public meeting has been told.
Cllr Tim Durkan asked Kildare County Council officials for an update on the progress of the Local Infrastructure Housing Activation Fund (LIHAF) funded section of the Maynooth Orbital route.
LIHAF money aims to build infrastructure to boost house building.
Kildare County Council is developing a new road on the eastern side of Maynooth.
It will link between the Leixlip Road (R148) and the Celbridge Road (R405). In a report to members of the Clane-Maynooth Municipal District on December 4, officials said the Project Team are currently working with Roughan & O’Donovan, consulting engineers, in preparing the Compulsory Purchase Order (CPO) documents and doing detailed design of the road scheme.
