M7 night closures proposed between Borris-in-Ossory and Moneygall, for resurfacing works.
Motorists are being advised of proposed overnight closures on sections of the M7 between Junction 21 at Borris-in-Ossory (Co. Laois) and Junction 23 at Moneygall, (Co. Offaly), both junctions located in Co. Tipperary.
Tipperary County Council has published a notice of its intention to temporarily close sections of the motorway in both directions to facilitate surfacing works.
The proposed closures are:
- M7 westbound from Junction 21 to Junction 22.
- M7 westbound from Junction 22 to Junction 23.
- M7 eastbound from Junction 23 to Junction 22.
- M7 eastbound from Junction 22 to Junction 21.
The closures are proposed to operate nightly from 7:00pm on Thursday, October 22, 2026, until 6:00am on Saturday, December 19th, 2026.
Diversion routes will use sections of the R435, R445 and N62, depending on which section of the motorway is closed.
The works are being planned to allow resurfacing of the M7 in both the eastbound and westbound directions.
Importantly, the council notice is currently an intention to close the road, meaning the temporary closure order has not yet been finalised.
Objections to the proposed closure can be submitted to Tipperary County Council up to 12 noon on Thursday, October 8, 2026.
