702. Deputy John Paul Phelan asked the Minister for Transport, Tourism and Sport the current status and possible timeframe for completion of the N25 New Ross bypass and the link between the proposed New Ross bypass and the existing Waterford bypass, which is also on the N25; and if he will make a statement on the matter. [25051/13]
View answerAs Minister for Transport, Tourism & Sport, I have responsibility for overall policy and funding in relation to the national roads programme. The planning, design and implementation of individual road projects is a matter for the National Roads Authority (NRA) under the Roads Acts 1993 to 2007 in conjunction with the local authorities concerned. Noting the above position, I have referred the Deputy’s question to the NRA for direct reply. Please advise my private office if you do not receive a reply within 10 working days.
