BAM breaks ground on key south Dublin link road set to boost connectivity and sustainable travel
BAM has commenced construction on the M50 Junction 14 Link Road scheme in the Sandyford and Leopardstown Road area, one of Dublin’s busiest employment and residential areas in Ireland. The vital infrastructure project to the south of the city will ease congestion, unlock network capacity and accelerate the shift toward sustainable transport.
The scheme, developed by Dún Laoghaire-Rathdown County Council, will include a new link road, a new signalised junction, dedicated active travel facilities to support safe walking and cycling and an enhanced pedestrian and cyclist crossing.
BAM will work closely with Clifton Scannell Emerson Associates, whose design integrates modern active travel principles while enhancing safety and future-proofing the local transport network.
“This is an important project for South Dublin, one that will enhance connectivity, encourage sustainable travel and improve safety for all road users. Our team is focused on working closely with Dún Laoghaire-Rathdown County Council and local stakeholders to ensure the scheme is delivered efficiently, with minimal disruption, and to the highest standards of quality and safety.”

The construction contract spans 18 months, with works progressing generally from north to south. With construction now underway, the project underscores BAM’s ongoing commitment to delivering sustainable, high-impact infrastructure that supports Ireland’s growing urban communities.
