View answerPlans for the development of the proposed Limerick City Footbridge are the responsibility of Limerick City and County Council. Provision has been made for this Department to provide grant assistance to the Council and an allocation of €150,000 has been made this year with a view to facilitating the Council in progressing project development. In this context the Council has been asked to provide the supporting documentation required for consideration of the project under the strategic grant scheme category.
