Tánaiste rules out regrading of N61 as national primary routePrevious Next Image 1 of 2 Simon Harris. The Tánaiste, Simon Harris, has ruled out reclassifying the N61 road as a national primary route, despite calls from Roscommon County Council, which has highlighted its strategic importance for regional development, road safety and connectivity in the west and north-west. He argued that reclassification would support balanced regional development, inward investment and improved road safety. He explained that national primary roads are long-distance routes linking principal cities, ports or airports, while national secondary roads connect principal towns and link primary routes. “The N61 is of technical medium length and functions as a connector between principal towns and existing national primary routes, including the N6, N5 and N4,” he said, adding that authorities believe it is correctly classified.

Five year extension sought for completion of Tullamore private hospitalThe developers of a private hospital on the Wellwood campus in Tullamore are seeking to extend the timescale for the completion of the development by another five years, to December 2031. Supporting information which was prepared and submitted on behalf of John Flanagan Developments Ltd., by a Scottish-based agency, Scott Hobbs Planning (SHP), sets out the reason for seeking a timeline extension for completion of the project. No other changes are proposed to the development which already has planning permission. “There is necessity for one pump station only” they state, adding that it would be “unsustainable” to require the construction of both stations. John Flanagan Developments Ltd., was granted planning permission for a new 99-bed private hospital on a site known as the Wellwood Campus at the Arden Roundabout off the N52 bypass on the outskirts of Tullamore in February 2023.
