This was an approved road and remained open. It had customs posts on both sides of the border.
-
There was a customs post on the Southern side of this bridge. In earlier times, the customs post acted as a telephone point for local families.

I have great memories of travelling to friendly football games with underage Scotstsown teams and being stopped on the border at Augnacloy on the way to Carrigmore for a game. Our bus would be stopped and the bus and all bags would be checked. We were surprised at the heavy handed approach taken by the soldiers in this instance and it didn't stop some of the players giving some bad manners at the time.
