As Minister for Transport, I have responsibility for policy and overall funding in relation to Active Travel. Funding is administered through the National Transport Authority (NTA), who, in partnership with local authorities, have responsibility for the selection and development of specific projects in each local authority area.

€290 million was allocated to the NTA's Active Travel Infrastructure Fund this year, and the NTA in turn have allocated the following funding to the four local authorities in Dublin for walking and cycling infrastructure in 2025:

Dun Laoghaire Rathdown County Council

Fingal County Council

€20,000,000

South Dublin County Council

€20,000,000

Total

A full breakdown of project allocations per local authority is available on the NTA's website.
