Hi I was on the road between Omeath Co. Louth and Newry Co. Down on Saturday and I crossed the United Kingdom border at [19/54.11201/-6.29200] where the R173 becomes the B79. The road narrows to bridge under which a culverted or piped stream flows out into Carlingford Lough. I have added images of it to Mapillary.
There is no scope at this place for a customs point, I can only imagine the road would close like it was in the 1970s if Brexit proceeds. Building infrastructure away from the actual crossing point could be abused by anyone with a mind to do so, because there are numerous ways down to the water, and up the Slieve Gullion via bohereens, farm drives and so on. We may have to remap these areas significantly if there are to be suitable customs infrastructure, road widening and fencing erected there. _______________________________________________ Talk-ie mailing list [email protected] https://lists.openstreetmap.org/listinfo/talk-ie
