For the background to the Banbridge bypass see Image This view shows the staggered crossroads where it crossed the Banbridge – Rathfriland road. The bypass is now dualled and the “at grade” junction replaced by a flyover Image Image shows the road under construction. The view is towards Newry and Dublin. The suburban sprawl had still to take place as the town spread east towards the road. (Note: the Rathfriland Road remains on the original alignment but the flyover is on a different line).
