Brendan Griffin (FG), Kerry

The N22 Farranfore to Killarney project is long awaited and long overdue. It is a vital project, not just for the alleviation of traffic within the Killarney town area but also for regional connectivity, connecting our county town of Tralee safely to County Cork. There has been great progress made on the N22 between Ballyvourney-Macroom and on to Cork city but that section of connection from Tralee to Killarney is badly in need of upgrade. There seems to be an ideological allergy to tarmacadam in certain parts of the Department of Transport at present. We need to see these vital projects built. We know they are needed for the future. Can we please get on with it and stop the messing around where these projects are being delayed? It is costing lives as well. These are dangerous roads at present.
