Road Projects
Dail Éireann — 2025-03-04
============================================================

Darragh O'Brien (FF), Dublin Fingal East

Gabhaim buíochas leis na Teachtaí. I am aware of how important this is. We will have national roads announcements in the coming weeks. I mentioned €4.8 million was allocated in 2024. Just two weeks ago, on 14 February, €23.6 million was also allocated to Waterford as part of the regional and local roads allocations. I am aware of the importance of the N25 and the N24, which Deputy McGrath mentioned and about which I spoke to him directly. That is a very significant road improvement scheme in the context of the whole network, involving approximately 60 km. It requires significant funding to move this on. There will be many competing projects within this year's programme. Within the past few days, I received a draft submission, which I intend to review in detail. I expect to make announcements in the coming weeks in this regard.
Specifically on the action group Deputy Cullinane mentioned, I would be happy to interact with them if he forwards any correspondence he has to me.
