Dáil Éireann Debate, Tuesday - 25 March 2014
1271. Deputy Éamon Ó Cuív asked the Minister for Transport, Tourism and Sport the allocation in 2014 for signposting on the national route N59; the benefits this signposting will bring; the budget from which this is being funded; and if he will make a statement on the matter. [13853/14]
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, including the provision of signage, 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.
