Dáil Éireann Debate, Thursday - 20 April 2023
175. Deputy Catherine Murphy asked the Minister for Transport the steps he will take to address a safety concern in respect of an N4 junction (details supplied); and if he will engage with the relevant State body on the matter. [18778/23]
View answerAs Minister for Transport, I have responsibility for overall policy and exchequer funding in relation to the National Roads Programme. Under the Roads Acts 1993-2015 and in line with the National Development Plan (NDP), the operation and maintenance of individual national roads is a matter for Transport Infrastructure Ireland (TII), in conjunction with the local authorities concerned. This is also subject to the Public Spending Code and the necessary statutory approvals. In this context, TII is best placed to advise you.
Noting the above position, I have referred your question to TII for a direct reply. Please advise my private office if you do not receive a reply within 10 working days.
