Written answers

As Minister for Transport, Tourism and Sport I meet with the Chairman, CEO and Board of the NRA during the course of the year. My Department are also in regular contact with them in relation to various matters including budgetary and policy issues generally.

In the past few years the NRA has delivered a network of national primary and secondary roads which have allowed fast and predictable journey times for goods and people across the country and to major ports and airports.

Projects developed by the NRA have as their primary objective the delivery of a safe and efficient network of national roads. Additionally, these roads are designed and built after consultation across sectors of the community, including the business community, and with particular attention to the benefits and potential to improve market access for all.
