Okay. The situation is very frustrating. This road has been needed for 15 years. The need for it is crystal clear. The housing issue is a strategic objective to try to solve but the utter gridlock in Drogheda stops businesses setting up and it puts people off coming into town. The gridlock is a nightmare and has been for years. In what timeframe does the Department envisage the project being completed? Given that there is no definitive funding and Mr. Mullaney has advised the council of the strategic grant scheme, is there is a limit on funding for that project?
