Simon Harris (Wicklow, Fine Gael) | Oireachtas source

I thank the Minister for his comprehensive response and for providing some very useful information for the people of Wicklow. The fact that a CCTV survey is being conducted, along with a number of site visits, with a report expected shortly is both proactive and welcome. As a representative for County Wicklow, I hope to be in this House at some stage in the future obtaining information from the Minister on the timetable for an upgrade of the N11. I am very confident that the upgrade will go ahead but I ask, in that context, that lessons are learned in advance of that work starting. The flooding problems and issues on parts of the roadway should be factored in to the overall upgrade of the road. It is important that when the report is finalised, its recommendations are acted upon and that Dún Laoghaire-Rathdown County Council and the NRA work together on this.
