1592. Deputy Micheál Martin asked the Minister for Transport, Tourism and Sport if he will publish the environmental impact statement in respect of the Bloomfield interchange-N28 area affecting Maryborough Heights, Douglas, County Cork, which was due for publication in quarter 1 of 2015; the reason for the delay in providing this report to date; and if he will make a statement on the matter.

View answerAs Minister for Transport, Tourism and 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 2015 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.
