Dáil Éireann Debate, Tuesday - 29 November 2016
713. Deputy Tom Neville asked the Minister for Transport, Tourism and Sport if Transport Infrastructure Ireland plans to carry out upgrade works on the N69 Kilcornan village as escalated by Limerick City and County Council in view of the fact conditions are extremely dangerous in the area. [36858/16]
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 (including works on the N69 Kilcornan village) is a matter for Transport Infrastructure Ireland (TII), formerly 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 TII for direct reply. I ask the Deputy to please advise my private office if he does not receive a reply within 10 working days.
