Joint Oireachtas Committee on Transport and Communications
Road Network: Discussion with National Roads Authority
9:55 am
Mr. Fred Barry:
There is no list. When the Government tells the NRA that money will be allocated, the NRA will then look at how best to spend that money. We do not engage in continually updating lists in the absence of funding to do the work. I cannot state that the N16 rates higher or lower than the north-west corridor or any other road around the country.
The NRA has stated that the condition of the N16 is unsatisfactory and would like to do something about it. There is no purpose in the NRA conducting an academic exercise as to what might be done with money it does not have.
