Michelle Mulherin

Ceist:

281. Deputy Michelle Mulherin asked the Minister for Transport, Tourism and Sport the reason road signage at the Carrentreila by-pass on the N26 is being replaced when the road is only open a few years; the cost of this replacement signage; and if he will make a statement on the matter. [23392/13]

As Minister for Transport, Tourism and Sport, I have responsibility for overall policy and funding in relation to the national roads programme.  The planning, design and implementation of individual road projects, including the provision of signage, is a matter for the National Roads Authority (NRA) under the Roads Acts 1993 to 2007 in conjunction with the local authorities concerned.

Noting the above position, I have referred the Deputy's question to the NRA for direct reply.  Please advise my private office if you do not receive a reply within 10 working days.
