Road schemes completed 1973-2000

This is a list initially derived from the booklet "A History of Roads Service 1973 to 2006" and from the 1987 Review of Transportation, and subsequently enhanced with new information from various sources. I will not be providing any more details on these schemes (although the current roads section of the site gives more details on motorway construction), but they are included here for completeness. 1973 is when Roads Service was formed. Prior to this date, many different bodies were responsible for roads.

Some schemes completed before 1973

Unless otherwise stated, this is a list derived from the booklet "The History of Ulster's Roads", by T Jackson McCormick, and published in 1991. This is NOT AN EXHAUSTIVE LIST, but merely examples of schemes that were completed prior to the establishment of Roads Service in 1973.
