223. Deputy Michael Cahill asked the Minister for Transport to expedite all greenways across County Kerry; to provide landowners and farmers with all necessary accommodation works and fair compensation; and if he will make a statement on the matter. [51047/25]
View answerAs Minister for Transport, I have responsibility for overall policy and exchequer funding in relation to Greenways. To date, there has been a significant amount of investment for Greenway schemes in County Kerry, with €8,250,000 allocated in 2025 alone.
In line with Section 32 (2) of the Roads Act 1993, the planning, design, and construction of individual Greenways is a matter for Transport Infrastructure Ireland (TII), in conjunction with the local authorities concerned.
Noting the above position, I have referred your question, on this occasion, to TII for a direct reply. Please advise my private office if you do not receive a reply within 10 working days.
