The €400 million M11 Gorey to Enniscorthy PPP project in County Wexford linking Dublin to Rosslare and the South East Region comprises a new four lane motorway from the end of the Gorey Bypass at Clogh to the townland of Scurlockbush, south of Enniscorthy. The scheme also includes a bypass of the N30 to the west of Enniscorthy and a link road to the N80.
The new route will include the provision of approximately 27 km of motorway. Approximately 8 km of single carriageway will also be constructed to bypass Enniscorthy to the west and a further 4 km of dual carriageway link road will connect the existing N11 / N80 junction north of Enniscorthy to the M11 mainline. The project includes two grade separated junctions, three major bridges (over rivers and railway line) and various road overbridge and underbridge structures.
The preparatory works for the new road pavement, including the earthworks, drainage and ground improvement layers, have now been completed. Work is now commencing on the actual pavement works on M11, N30 and N80 Link Road, and in constructing all the local side roads that cross over or under the mainline.
The project involves construction in greenfield locations and in semi-urban areas, with adjacent housing, commercial and industrial premises and other infrastructure in some locations. The project crosses the Slaney River Valley, which is designated a candidate special area of conservation (cSAC) and proposed Natural Heritage Area (pNHA).
