Roadworks in Sandyford Business District

M50 Junction 14 Link Road Scheme — Roadworks Update

Sandyford Business District (SBD) is pleased to confirm the commencement of the M50 Junction 14 Link Road Scheme, a major infrastructure project long championed by SBD on behalf of local businesses and residents.

This milestone marks the culmination of sustained advocacy to improve connectivity, enhance mobility, and reduce congestion across The District and surrounding areas.

Road closures begin on 19 January and will remain in place for approximately three months.

The project includes the construction of a new link road connecting the existing signalised roundabout at M50 Junction 14 on Leopardstown Road to Blackthorn Road.

SBD will work closely with the Director of Services at Dún Laoghaire–Rathdown County Council and the project team, and will hold weekly coordination meetings with BAM Civil Ltd. to ensure we have the most up-to-date information for businesses throughout the construction period.

Traffic management will be a key focus, with measures implemented to minimise disruption for businesses and commuters. Regular updates will be available via the SBD website.

Uisce Éireann Roadworks — Water Infrastructure Upgrade

Start date: 24 November 2025

Location: Works will begin near the Nesta Business Centre before moving onto Burton Hall Road under a stop-and-go traffic management system.

A road closure will be required near the junction of Blackthorn Avenue and Burton Hall Road. Further details will be issued in due course.

Uisce Éireann is undertaking essential works to upgrade local water infrastructure as part of its Growth and Development Programme, supporting the future expansion of the Sandyford area.

The project will be delivered on behalf of Uisce Éireann by GMC Utilities Group.

SBD will maintain close engagement with both Uisce Éireann and GMC Utilities Group, with weekly update meetings scheduled throughout the construction phase. Ongoing updates will be available on the SBD website.
