N17 Knock to Collooney

Date: 02-12-2020

The Public Consultation on the initial Feasible Options for a potential upgrade between Knock and Collooney is continuing, with submissions from the public welcome up to January 15^th 2021.

All information relating to this stage of the project, including all Feasible Options, is on the Project Website; therefore, the public are encouraged to view the website as a first port of call. A feature of the website (Mapping Page) allows users to insert their ‘Eircode’ which will take them to their location and highlight routes which are in proximity to them.

The public are encouraged to continue to contact the Project Team with any queries, by:

Making a ‘Contact Us’ or ‘Call Back’ request on the Project Website;
Sending an email to n17knockcollooney@sligococo.ie; or
By booking a call back appointment through 071 91 11975.

Submissions can be made through:

The Project Website;
Email to n17knockcollooney@sligococo.ie; or
Post to: FREEPOST, The ‘N17 Knock to Collooney [AEC] Public Consultation No. 02’, Sligo National Roads Project Office, Sligo County Council, Market Yard, Sligo, F91WV7R

Note: On the 6th of October 2020, the Sligo National Roads Project Office released a range of initial Feasible Options for potential upgrades to the N17 between Knock and Collooney. The Options constitute initial broad route corridors with provisional junction locations. The Options design will evolve over time, as detailed appraisal and environmental assessment progresses. Further Public Consultations will take place at each stage of project development.
