The Cabinet has approved the acceleration of the Adare bypass road in time for the Ryder Cup in 2027.
Transport Minister Eamon Ryan said the town is a bottleneck and that bypasses need to be prioritised so towns can recover.
The bypass is one part of the Limerick to Foynes Project, which is 33km in length, and includes a new road from the Port of Foynes to the motorway network in Limerick.
