Dáil Éireann Debate, Tuesday - 5 November 2013
1297. Deputy Tom Fleming asked the Minister for Transport, Tourism and Sport if he will direct the National Roads Authority to revisit the proposed Tralee to Dingle road upgrade as a priority and progress the preparation of revised plans with Kerry County Council at an early date. [47119/13]
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 don’t receive a reply within 10 working days.
