Dáil Éireann Debate, Thursday - 26 October 2023
138. Deputy Bernard J. Durkan asked the Minister for Transport when the proposals to proceed with the provision of a second bridge over the Liffey at Celbridge, County Kildare, might be activated in line with ever-increasing traffic volume requirements; and if he will make a statement on the matter. [47241/23]
View answerAs Minister for Transport I have responsibility for policy and overall funding in relation to the matters outlined in the Deputy's question, while the National Transport Authority (NTA) has responsibility for the planning and development such projects and works in conjunction with the relevant local authorities, including Kildare County Council, to implement same.
Noting the NTA's responsibility in this matter, I have referred your question to them for a more detailed reply. Please contact my private office if you do not receive a reply within 10 working days.
