Mr. Peter Walsh:

I will refer the Deputy to our supporting documents. We are referring to the Rath roundabout to Kilmoon Cross project as a transportation corridor. At the previous meeting, the Deputy said that, although he was not expecting a particular design solution, something had to happen. We have tried to reflect that thinking in the title. The third public consultation on the emerging preferred option commenced on 4 March and will run until 22 April. The phase 2 option selection report was published on 16 February. The proposed carriageway type will be considered and assessed by TII and Meath County Council. We are progressing topographical surveys.
