True. Though I remember hearing from an Irish friend that when the Dublin Westlink was built in the 80s people in (posh) Blanchardstown were complaining that there would be lots of criminals coming down from (poor) Tallaght at the other end.

That's also a shocking price for the size and location (beside the Westlink / a "peace wall") in Belfast. You could buy a 3 bed house in the same area and save yourself 20k at least.

BikeWest is advocating that the Victorian state gov and city of Maribyrnong commit to building WestLink. Maybe the Feds could pay for it (like Albo committed to back in 2016)!

Left PRONI yesterday around 4:30, the queue to get onto the M3 to get onto the Westlink to get onto the M1 was already all the way round to the carpark opposite the Odyssey. No accidents, but I still didn't get into fourth gear until near Lisburn.
It's worse than the M50 and that takes some doing.

This greatly surprised me, as an observer to proceedings, as it would have involved perhaps three unnecessary tolls at the Westlink, the Port Tunnel, and maybe the Eastlink too, instead of just coming in the Chapelizod Bypass.

The M50 was originally intended to be a bypass around Dublin.
Note the vague, passive language used by the National Roads Authority in 2013 to describe what the State and its various agencies actually did with the M50 in terms of spatial and transport "planning".

One tiny A-road ties together Northern Ireland's motorway network and makes sense of Belfast's streets. Are we wrong to love the small but mighty A12 Westlink? #belfast www.roads.org.uk/motorway/a12...
A12 (Northern Ireland)
These two miles of dual carriageway in central Belfast somehow manage to form the most important link in Northern Ireland's road network.
