R639 road

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

The R639 is one of Ireland's regional roads which was classified following the opening of a by-passed National Primary route.

By-passed sections of the old N8 are reclassified R639 as soon a new section of N8 is opened. Eventually the R639 will stretch from Port Laoise to Cork.
