Written answers

Minister for Transport

A request was received from Cork County Council in 2018 to reclassify the R624 access road to Cobh and Great Island as a national road.  Following consultation with Transport Infrastructure Ireland, my Department is not proposing to advance consideration of such a reclassification at present.
