Offaly County Council seeking consultant for new inner relief roads

Offaly County Council (OCC) has begun a tendering process to find an engineering consultant to work on their developments of two inner relief roads in Edenderry.

OCC proposes to develop two new link roads and associated junction realignments within the town, one connecting the Dublin Road to Monasteroris and another connecting Granary Court to the Fairgreen.

Both routes recently got the go-ahead at council level despite significant public consultation raising a number of concerns including traffic flow, safety and junction dangers.

OCC is seeking the services an engineering consultant to provide all services for delivery of the scheme in line with the Transport Infrastructure Ireland (TII) Project Management Guidelines (PMG) Phases 1 to 5.
