Dáil Éireann Debate, Tuesday - 16 June 2026
341. Deputy Malcolm Byrne asked the Minister for Transport to provide an update on the development of the South Wicklow Greenway; the amount of the sum allocated by his Department to the project which has been drawn down to date; the actions taken on foot of that drawdown; and if he will make a statement on the matter. [45868/26]
View answerAs Minister for Transport, I have responsibility for overall policy and exchequer funding in relation to Greenways. I note that the Arklow to Shillelagh Greenway scheme in County Wicklow has received an allocation of €300,000 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.
