R132 road
From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
The R132 is one of Ireland's newest regional roads, having being classified following the opening M1 motorway which by-passes most of the old N1 route.
By-passed sections of the old N1 were reclassified R132.
[edit] Route
(North to south: there are three sections to this route)
- (1) The R132 starts in Dundalk at a junction with the N52 and the N1 and proceeds through Dunleer, and the uplands of Monasterboice,County Louth.
- (2) It continues on through Drogheda, Balbriggan, and Swords before terminating at a junction with the N1 in Whitehall.
- (3) There is a stub section of the former N1 BY-Pass of Dunleer linking the R132 to the M1
Mooremount partial interchange (M1/R170), which was built in the first phase of the M1 project(1991-1993). This was downgraded to Regional Road status in 2001 with the completion of the Dunleer-Dundalk section of the M1 Motorway, and was redesignated as the R211.
