Emmet Stagg
Ceist:266 Mr. Stagg asked the Minister for Arts, Heritage, Gaeltacht and the Islands if her attention has been drawn to the delay in the provision of a replacement footbridge over the Royal Canal at Maynooth, County Kildare, which is causing a severe inconvenience to train commuters who wish to access Main Street via Leinster Street and are insisting that the replacement footbridge be placed 30 metres west of the previous footbridge; if her attention has further been drawn to the fact that CIÉ and Kildare County Council want the new footbridge to be repositioned at its former location; if she will direct the officials to agree to the location by CIÉ and Kildare County Council; and if she will make a statement on the matter.
