Local access will be provided, and pedestrian access through the level crossing maintained. |

They will then continue south along Ballygoran View and then turn left onto the R405 eastbound. They will then take the next left onto Obelisk Lane and continue on to the L81206 where the diversion ends. |
Diversionary routes will be clearly signposted, as agreed with the Council and An Garda Síochána. Emergency access and restricted local access will be maintained.
