Leo Varadkar (FG), Dublin West

In fairness to the Minister, Deputy Ryan, he has always made the case in favour of bypasses because bypasses relieve towns of traffic and allow for improvements in air quality and for more pedestrian space and space for cyclists and so on. There was very positive news today that the Government has given the Minister approval to press ahead with the Adare bypass, a 7 km roadway. That will go to construction next year with the intention of having it completed by 2027. In terms of other projects and bypasses, obviously that is a funding matter, but I know the Minister is keen to progress safety improvements, and bypasses in particular.
