Joint Oireachtas Committee on Transport, Tourism and Sport
N52 Ardee Bypass: Discussion
Mr. Peter Walsh:
I included the comment that in all of the submissions, the residents pointed out that they did not want to delay the construction because that is what they said in the submissions. The other question I was trying to pre-empt related to what happened in the intervening year. The answer to that is the county council and TII were trying to work to find a solution that would fit within the current planning permission and current land acquisition so that we could proceed without going through any other processes. Who knows? That might still be possible. Until the issues have been addressed, it would not be right to proceed to construction of the project designed in 2004.
