Dáil Éireann Debate, Friday - 16 September 2016
1821. Deputy Brendan Griffin asked the Minister for Transport, Tourism and Sport if a road (details supplied) in County Kerry will be recategorised as a national road in view of the fact that it is the main artery between two Kerry towns; and if he will make a statement on the matter. [25964/16]
View answerSection 10 of the Roads Act 1993, as amended by the Roads Act 2007, provides for the classification of national, regional and local roads and periodic reviews are undertaken in that regard.
While I am not aware of a request from Kerry County Council for a reclassification of the R563, the matter referenced can be considered as part of a wider road classification process currently on-going.
