Possible Routes
Four possible routes have at different times been identified, the first two taken together as North Channel routes. These are:
- Kintyre Route (Campbeltown-North East County Antrim)
- Galloway Route (Stranraer-Belfast)
- Irish Mail Route (Holyhead-Dublin)
- Tuskar Route (Fishguard -Rosslare)
A fifth route, via the Isle of Man, would require two tunnels, but has never been seriously considered due to length and difficult geology.

Famous quotes containing the word routes:
“The myth of independence from the mother is abandoned in mid- life as women learn new routes around the mother—both the mother without and the mother within. A mid-life daughter may reengage with a mother or put new controls on care and set limits to love. But whatever she does, her child’s history is never finished.”
—Terri Apter (20th century)
