Dáil Éireann Debate, Thursday - 30 April 2026
172. Deputy Michael Cahill asked the Minister for Transport in view of the fact that two sections of the South Kerry Greenway are now open, if he will provide the necessary funding to get Glenbeigh village and Caherciveen town greenway ready; and if he will make a statement on the matter. [31448/26]
View answerAs Minister for Transport, I have responsibility for overall policy and exchequer funding in relation to Greenways. I note that there has been significant investment in Greenway schemes in County Kerry, with €9,950,000 allocated in 2026 alone.
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.
