The N13 road is a National Primary Route in Ireland, running in County Donegal from Stranorlar to the border near Derry. This connects Letterkenny to Sligo, Derry and onwards to other destinations.

[edit] Route

The route diverges from the N15 (from Sligo) at Stranorlar. The route process north through Kilross and Drumnacross to a point just east of Letterkenny. Here it is joined by the N14 from Letterkenny town centre. A section of dual carriageway runs east to bring the N13 (and traffic from the N14) to just south of Manorcunningham. Here the N14 recommences, leaving east/southeast from the junction with the N13. The N13 continues northeast as single carriageway, passing along a bypass of Newtowncunningham and passing through Speenoge. The route turns east/southeast at Bridge End to end at the border with Northern Ireland immediately northwest of Derry. The route continues into the city centre as the A2 road.


[edit] Upgrades

As of 2006 no upgrades of the N13 are planned. The majority of the route is demarcated by the National Roads Authority as "upgraded" on their National Roads 2006 Status map [1] (PDF).
