An upgrade had been proposed for the R624, originally planned to begin in 2010.[citation needed] This upgrade expected a new section to the road, to replace the existing road from Tullagreen N25 Carrigtwohill-Cobh Interchange to Belvelly.[citation needed] As of late 2015, no funding for development works on the R624 had been confirmed.[1][2] However in late 2015 and early 2016, a number of calls were made for funding to be allocated,[3] in particular to fund works on the road's main bridges.[4]
The road is 9.5 km (5.9 mi) long.
