From theAA.ie: “The Millstreet/ Rathmore Rd (R582) will close for works at the townland of Inches from Mon 10th until Fri 21st Aug from 8am until 6pm each day.”
Inches is the very bumpy strait section of road as you come into Rathmore (map)
just a thought …. it coincides nicely with the Horse Show … the busiest traffic week of the year. what genius planned that?
