Cork road to close for Michael Collins Commemoration on Sunday
The L2011 at Béal na Bláth will be closed from 10:30am to 5pm on Sunday, August 24 to facilitate the Michael Collins Commemoration.
The road closure is pursuant to Section 75 of the Roads Act 1993, and Article 12 of the Roads Regulations 1994.
The alternative route for southbound traffic is to follow the R-585 west to junction with the L-2008 at Boxers Cross. Road users should follow the L-2008 south across the L-2006 and onto the L-6013 into Newcetown village. Take the L-2009 northeast to the L-2011 at Mossgrove.
The diversion is applicable in reverse when travelling in the opposite direction.
Local access will be maintained throughout the duration of the road closure.
The Michael Collins Commemoration takes place on the Sunday closest to August 22 each year, as General Michael Collins, commander-in-chief of the Irish army, was killed in an ambush during the Civil War on that date.
