Road Projects
Seanad Éireann — 2024-05-23
============================================================

Seán Kyne (FG), Cultural and Educational Panel

I welcome the fact a funding application has been made by Galway County Council. Unfortunately, we heard the same thing in 2008 and on numerous occasions since then. I am concerned this is another stalling position and after the series of elections will still have made no progress. The people of Claregalway need to know this will progress, go to TII and be funded. The concern is we hear anecdotally and from different parts of the country that there is a slowdown on capital spending on road projects. I know the Minister, Deputy Ryan, is not overly enamoured of new road projects. It is important we get greater clarity from TII on this project.
