The R132 road is one of Ireland's newest regional roads, having been classified following the opening M1 motorway which by-passes most of the old N1 route. The R132 is 98.9 kilometres (61.5 mi) long.

By-passed sections of the old N1 were reclassified R132. The route has a highly varying road quality, with some sections of dual carriageway such as the original Swords Bypass, and the original run-in to the M1 Balbriggan Bypass; much wide standard two-lane road, and some very poor segments.

Some sections, such as that through Drogheda, are still signed "N1" though the town was bypassed in 2003.

gollark: How does one do that?
gollark: Was it not <@217026209752678401> complaining?
gollark: ```Shulkers spawn during generation of end cities, which are located on the outer islands of the End. They usually spawn on the walls of the city. They don't despawn naturally, even in Peaceful difficulty, and once killed, they don't respawn.```https://minecraft.gamepedia.com/ShulkerWe can't blame CLNinja5cn for *every* scarcity issue.
gollark: *checks wi'iki*
gollark: Wait, shulkers are refilled by the dragon being spawned?
