The R428 road, also called the Athy Road, is a regional road in Ireland, located in County Kildare and County Laois. ^{[1] [2]}

The road formerly used to end at Duke Street on the former N78 (now L4015) in Athy, however, due to the opening of the new Athy Distributor Road, it turns right from Woodstock Street onto William Street, crosses the Grand Canal, and continues for about a kilometre and a half until the roundabout adjacent to Blackparks. Motorists can then continue straight onto the N78 towards Castlecomer.
