caption_attribution_description: English: N22 road near Ballincollig approaching the Cork Southern Ring from the north.
context_page_description: The N22 road is a national primary road in Ireland which goes through counties Kerry and Cork, from Tralee in the west through Killarney, Macroom and Ballincollig to Cork City in the east.
  Sections of the N22 have been substantially upgraded in recent years. During the 1980s and 1990s a 25 km section between Killarney and the border with County Cork was rebuilt and widened. An auxiliary climbing lane has been provided on the steep grade sections. The late 1980s saw a 3 km bypass of Killarney. In 2004, the Ballincollig bypass west of Cork city was completed. This is an 11 km dual carriageway road built to Motorway standards that connects with the N40 Cork South Ring Road. In 2005, 4 km of the road between Tralee and Farranfore was upgraded. This added to a 4 km section opened in 2002. In August 2013, a new 5.5 km section of road was added as part of the Tralee N22/N69 bypass project at Ballingrelagh replacing the section of road where the N22 originally ended at the N21 John Cronin Roundabout in Ballycarty. The N22 now terminates at Camp Roundabout outside Tralee on the N22/N69 Tralee Bypass.
