The realigned route will comprise the provision of approximately 26 km of M11 Mainline, with a standard dual motorway carriageway type, along with approximately 1 Km of N11 Mainline, with standard single carriageway type. The proposed M11/N11 Mainline will be located to the east of the existing N11 and will bypass Camolin, Ferns and Enniscorthy. In addition it is proposed to provide approximately 8 km of single carriageway to bypass Enniscorthy to the west by linking the existing N11 to the existing N30. Approximately 4 km of dual carriageway link road will connect the existing N11 / N80 junction north of Enniscorthy to the M11 Mainline. Comprising four lanes over a stretch of approximately 31 km, and a bridge with a span of approximately 153m in length, the requirement to carry out an Environmental Impact Assessment (EIA) is mandatory for the proposed scheme under Articles 8(a) and 8(b) of the Roads Regulations, 1994 (the prescribed types of proposed road development prescribed for the purposes of Section 50(1)(a)(iii) of the Roads Act 1993) and Second Schedule (Article 25) of the EC (Environmental Impact Assessment) (Amendment) Regulations, 1999 (S.I.

This site is in the general area known as Fassaroe and the nearest national road junction is Bray Central, which is about 750m north of the site. North of Bray Central the national road is a motorway (M11). A further 4km to the north approximately is the merge / diverge point of the M11 and the M50. The site may be described as being at the entry point to the county of Wicklow from the north (Dublin).
