​The archaeological services contract was recently signed between Rubicon and Cork County Council. The archaeological  services are being undertaken in advance of the M28 project, which is being progressed by Cork County Council on behalf of Transport Infrastructure Ireland.

​The project proposes to upgrade the existing N28 road between the N40 near Douglas Village, Carrigaline and Ringaskiddy, providing much needed improvements to the local infrastructure and alleviating traffic congestion for the thousands of commuters who use the route daily.
​The contract will require the excavation of over 50,000 metres of test-trenching under direct archaeological supervision, with subsequent excavation of any identified, previously unknown (and known) archaeological sites within the proposed route footprint.

A multi-disciplinary team of professional archaeologists has been assembled by Rubicon to undertake the investigations in accordance with the mitigation commitments made to An Bord Pleanála in its approval of the project and in compliance with the Code of Practice for Archaeology.
To learn more about the project and the recent history to bring it to fruition, please listen to a podcast interview we recorded with TII Project Archaeologist, Ken Hanley and Cork County Council Resident Archaeologist, Ed Lyne on the background to the M28 Cork to Ringaskiddy Project: Podcast Interview
