Intermittent monitoring was carried out for this scheme during 2006. Monitoring was undertaken along the Boyne road, where the pipeline travels through the constraint of ME025–029, and within the town of Navan itself. Sections along the Trim road were also monitored. The scheme was originally designed to cross the possible location of the medieval gates into Navan town. An application for ministerial consent was made to carry out this work. However, the scheme design changed and the gate locations were not impacted on by this work. Nothing of archaeological significance was discovered during monitoring work.
