Ceist:57 Mr. B. Fitzgerald asked the Minister for the Environment the total number of miles of county and regional roads in each local authority. [5676/95]
Information in relation to the number of kilometres of regional and county roads in each local authority area can be obtained from the inventory of public roads in Ireland as at 31 December 1977 which is available in the Oireachtas Library. I am requesting local authorities to carry out a new inventory, which will provide data on the length of the public road network as at the beginning of this year.
