Dáil Éireann Debate, Tuesday - 8 April 2014
708. Deputy Mary Mitchell O'Connor asked the Minister for Transport, Tourism and Sport the progress to date on the Sandycove to Sutton project in County Dublin; when it is expected to be completed; and if he will make a statement on the matter. [16301/14]
View answerAs Minister for Transport, Tourism and Sport, I have responsibility for policy and overall funding in relation to public transport. Following the establishment of the National Transport Authority (NTA) in December 2009, the development and implementation of infrastructure projects in the Greater Dublin Area (GDA) comes within the remit of the NTA. The Sandycove to Sutton Cycle/Walkway is being funded under the NTA's Sustainable Transport Measures Grants Programme.
Noting the NTA's responsibility in the matter, I have referred the Deputy's question to the Authority for a more detailed response. Please advise my private office if you don't receive a reply within 10 working days.
