Final section of M7 motorway opens

The final section of the M7 motorway opened to motorists today.

A ribbon-cutting ceremony planned for today was cancelled because of the continuing cold snap, but the road is now fully operational.

The section will see journey times from Dublin to Limerick reduced by up to 10 minutes.

Construction workers attempted to prevent the opening with protests until they were paid for six weeks' outstanding work.
