The plans involve reducing the width of the roadway which has approximately 8,650 vehicles per day travelling on the route that links Thurles to the M8 and traffic travelling north on the N62.
The proposal will see the undergrounding of electricity wires, 15 new light fixtures, seating, 30 trees, additional planting and a raised table at the junction of the Slievenamon Road and Thomond Road/Na Fianna Road.
The raised table is designed to offer improved safety for pedestrians crossing the road.
Planting will be used to provide improved safety for pedestrians at the service station and disabled parking space is to be created between Premier Meats and the Town House Deli.
Mott MacDonald Engineers have designed the project which is now out for consideration for planning approval.
