Road Projects
Seanad Éireann — 2021-05-24
============================================================

Erin McGreehan (FF), Nominated by the Taoiseach

I thank the Minister of State for the reply. He mentioned the business case. It might never be achieved if the conversation is around bare economic facts. The Narrow Water bridge project is about a great deal more than a bridge; it is about dreaming and looking to the future. There is so much tourism potential in the creation of this product. There is already a bridge and planning for widening it. The Minister of State's remarks are disingenuous because there is a bridge and a plan that is shovel-ready.
