The R698 runs from the N76 at Callan in County Kilkenny to the R680 at Mountbolton in County Waterford. The southern end of the R698 was originally on the N24 in Piltown. Following the opening of an improved section of the N24 in February 2002 the R698 was extended 2.2 Km along the former N24 to Fiddown, including a bridge over the new N24 alignment, and for a further 1 Km over the 1983 bridge over the River Suir to County Waterford. The latter bridge replaced a 19th century toll bridge at this location.
