Permission has been granted for safety works on the N59 at Gortacleva and Kentfield, Bushypark.
The go-ahead from An Coimisiún Pleanála comes after funding of €270,000 was announced for the project by Transport Infrastructure Ireland.
The works will make way for a new improved junction layout, which will include a footpath, signage, fencing and other realignment works.
It's expected the County Council will begin preparing tender documents and appointing a contractor over the coming months
Senator Seán Kyne says the junction is a dangerous section on a very busy road
