View answerEach local authority has statutory responsibility for the improvement and maintenance of public regional and local roads in its area of responsibility under the provisions of Section 13 of the Roads Act 1993.
Works on those roads are funded from each Council's own resources supplemented by State road grants, where applicable. The initial selection and prioritisation of works to be funded is a matter for the local authority.
My Department has not received any application for grant funding under the Regional and Local Road Grant Programme for a safety improvement scheme at this location.
