Cork Northern Distributor Multi-Modal Road

In 2025, plans for the "Cork Northern Distributor Multi-Modal Road", an outer ring road north of the existing R635, were published for public consultation. The new road, which has been the subject of objections from Glanmire residents, and praise from Cork businesspeople, would span c. 14 km, linking the Glanmire Road to the N22, 3 km west of Carrigrohane. The road could alleviate congestion around Apple Inc.'s European headquarters, with its 6,000 employees. Earlier plans from the National Transport Authority in 2020, showed the road meeting the N8 on Cork's east quays.
