Written answers

As Minister for Transport, Tourism and Sport, I have responsibility for overall policy and funding in relation to the national roads programme. Under the Roads Acts 1993-2015, the planning, design and construction of individual roads is a matter for the relevant road authority (i.e. local authority) in relation to local and regional roads, or for Transport Infrastructure Ireland (TII), in conjunction with the local authorities concerned, in relation to national roads.

Noting the above position, I have referred the question to TII for a direct reply. Please advise my private office if you do not receive a reply within 10 working days.

In the case of the Sallins Bypass the construction works are been undertaken by the same contractor who is responsible for the M7 Naas to Newbridge Bypass widening and the main works are under one contract.

A referred reply was forwarded to the Deputy under Standing Order 42A
