Road Network
Dail Éireann — 2024-03-21
============================================================

Eamon Ryan (GP), Dublin Bay South

Going into some details, additional projects have been progressed in Cavan and Monaghan this year. Eight schemes have been provided for under the climate change adaptation and resilience works programme. There have been 21 bridges dealt with under the bridge rehabilitation programme. There are 16 schemes under the safety improvement works programme. We provided an allocation in February. We will have to wait and see. Changing things in March would not be a good ordering of our affairs.
If there are any incidents, in particular with regard to flooding which we discussed earlier in respect of a road in Midleton, but the same applies across the country, we draw up special contingencies in the event of any specific flood or other climate-related damages. We will support counties because we do not want the road network to go below a certain level of repair. As the Deputy said, that is much more expensive.
