Amharc ar fhreagra177. Deputy Emer Currie asked the Minister for Transport the cost of the two active travel bridges under the N3 M50 to Clonee bus priority and active travel scheme, which was originally identified in the National Development Plan 2021-2023 [33037/26]
Amharc ar fhreagraI propose to take Questions Nos. 176 and 177 together.
As Minister for Transport, I have responsibility for overall policy and exchequer funding in relation to the National Roads Programme. Under the Roads Acts 1993-2015 and in line with the National Development Plan (NDP), the planning, design and construction of individual national roads is a matter for Transport Infrastructure Ireland (TII), in conjunction with the local authorities concerned. This is also subject to the Infrastructure Guidelines and the necessary statutory approvals. In this context, TII is best placed to advise you on the status of this project.
I can confirm that €500,000 has been allocated for the N3 M50 to Clonee bus priority and active travel scheme in 2026.
Noting the above position, I have referred your question to TII for a direct reply. Please advise my private office if you do not receive a reply within 10 working days.
