A2 Buncrana Road - Emerging Design

VISUALISATION ENVIRONMENTAL IMPACT ASSESSMENT (EIA)

EMERGING DESIGN

Indicative visualisation of the rural section of the A2 dual carriageway

Environmental Assessment will be undertaken to determine impacts on the local environment and appropriate mitigation measures will be incorporated into the design. These measures are likely to include landscaping, streetscape and ecology.

Please note: Subsequent in-depth study may result in some changes to the position or width of the emerging design. Any such changes should be contained within the grey shaded areas.

Access arrangements and mitigation measures will be considered in more detail during Stage 3 and may fall outside the grey highlighted areas.

Indicative visualisation of the urban section of the A2 dual carriageway

Existing environmental features along the A2

The emerging design is shown on the aerial image to the right. The route will be dual carriageway standard, with minimal junctions and a continuous central reserve/median. Right turn movements will be limited to improve safety. Where necessary, alternative access will be provided to the local road network.
