View answerI propose to take Questions Nos. 1457 and 1458 together.
As Minister for Transport, Tourism & 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 service areas, is a matter for Transport Infrastructure Ireland under the Roads Acts 1993-2015 in conjunction with the local authorities concerned.
Noting the above, I have referred the Deputy's Questions to TII for direct reply. Please advise my Office if the Deputy does not receive a reply within 10 working days.
