Upgrading of the N4 and N5 Roads Infrastructure: Discussion
10:10 am
Mr. Seamus Butler:
It is down to a sufficient corridor to develop a motorway area. The consultation period was gone through in the mid-2000s and therefore it is selected. It is next to move to design and compulsory purchase order. That is what we are specifically asking for. That is relatively low expenditure. It is not getting into the main capital expenditure, which is why it is a low-hanging fruit that can be picked without committing a large amount. Hopefully, as the economy improves, funding will be there for the capital investment.
