See Image For the record – the rebuilt Westlink officially opened (with three lanes in each direction from Divis Street to Broadway) on 1 December 2008 although in practice it was fully open on 29 November. The target completion date was March 2009. At 17.27 today the peak traffic was flowing freely. The view is from the overbridge at the Grosvenor Road towards the M2. Image shows an off-peak view, during the construction work, in February 2008.
