Development description
Croom distributor road - provision for a scheme to advance the unbuilt section of the distributor road to complete the link to high street r516 at its southern extent and a distributor road between crecora road and limerick road to the north. In addition, a new road will be constructed to the north of the proposed distributor road crossing the laskiltagh river to accommodate access to a proposed post-primary school which will be located north of the river. The proposed road will be a single carriageway road (6.0m carriageway road) with a shared cycleway/footway (1.5m wide cycleway and 1.5m footpath). A 1.0m buffer from the carriageway is also included on both sides of the carriageway with associated earthworks and verges. New junctions will be formed with the existing roads including a roundabout on the crecora road. There will be associated road signage/markings, drainage and utility services constructed. In addition, there will be an attenuation pond to facilitate sustainable drainage systems
