Written answers

As Minister for Transport, I have responsibility for overall policy and exchequer funding in relation to Greenways. I note that the active travel cycleway along the N60  (Breaffy to Castlebar) in County Mayo has received an allocation of €3,120,000 in  2026. 

Under 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.

A referred reply was forwarded to the Deputy under Standing Orders.
