I will do that at some stage. There is additional funding promised in the programme for Government for green ways. This is a project and a concept that is reasonably new to me but I find it extremely attractive. They are not just environmentally attractive. They can also bring in tourists as well as be attractive from a sport and clean living perspective. We should embrace and encourage them and it is my intention to increase their funding during my tenure, however long that may be. They provide value for money and give a great deal of enjoyment. They take people off the roads, improve tourism and their use is a healthy occupation. I will visit the one in Deputy Fitzpatrick's constituency. I will look at green ways projects seriously because funding will be available in the programme for Government. There should be a nationwide network of green ways. The number of them should certainly be increased.

I will leave the specifics on the roads to my colleague as I am not familiar with them.
