R727/R726 to Killerrig Cross and left onto the R418 and straight onto R725 to Tullow and vice versa
N81 from Tullow to Kill(magarvoge) Cross and left onto the R726 to Downings and vice versa

Tullow Municipal District apologises for the disruptions and inconvenience that shall be caused and will endeavour to remove the traffic restrictions as soon as it is safe for all to do so.
