Mr. Hugh Creegan:

The stage we are at, as the Deputy correctly said, is that we have completed a feasibility study that identifies the potential for an east-west route from Knocknacarra to Roscam that could proceed. The process will be that we have to update the Galway transport strategy. As part of the update, it feeds into it in the same way as other project proposals would feed into it. We then would have a consultation around the whole strategy as well. Out of that we will hopefully end up with an adopted transport strategy we can go forward with. We cannot say definitively here today that it will be in it, and we are not saying definitively that it will be out of it. It really has to go through a process where it is considered.
