Planning the Red Cow

The Red Cow intersection changes every time I see it. I visit Clondalkin about once a month and each time the road layout is different. How a project manager can keep track of it is astounding. It must be by far the biggest project we've done in Ireland. There are temporary roads and bridges and signs. Construction is happening for the next stage of the final road as well as the next stage of temporary road.

It looks nothing like the picture at the moment.

I'm not claiming the project is without fault, I don't know (and did notice two roads diverging with no clue as to which went where) but the sheer size is mind-boggling. To think someone plans it!!!
