Dáil Éireann Debate, Tuesday - 21 June 2016
537. Deputy Imelda Munster asked the Minister for Transport, Tourism and Sport his plans to restrict the access of higher goods vehicles and other large vehicles from St. Laurence's Gate in Drogheda, County Louth, given that these vehicles are causing damage to the structure. [16834/16]
View answerWhile the Department of Transport, Tourism and Sport (DTTAS) is responsible for general legislation in regard to traffic matters, DTTAS has no direct role in relation to local traffic. The implementation of local traffic management measures is a matter for the relevant local authority, which in this instance is Louth County Council. Concerns have already been brought to my attention by local representatives and I am aware of the issues involved.
