245 Mr. Naughten asked the Minister for Transport if he will use his powers under section 41 of the Road Traffic Act 1993 to direct the NRA to approve phase 1 of the Roscommon to Cooltighe stretch of the N61; and if he will make a statement on the matter. [5650/05]
Amharc ar fhreagraThe planning, design and implementation of road improvement projects including the Roscommon to Cooltighe section of the N61 is a matter for the National Roads Authority in conjunction with the relevant local authority, in this case Roscommon County Council.
I do not propose to issue a direction under section 41 of the Roads Act 1993 in regard to this issue which is an operational matter for the NRA.
