I hope the Department conducts that review thoroughly. I accept that the Minister is aware of the stretch of road in question. Perhaps we must look at the modalities and protocols by which we deal with wide stretches of roads with a considerable volume of traffic because of an increased number of people living nearby. Schools in the area are thriving and we must ensure they are safe places for parents, children and all others.

I know that Councillor Watters attended a recent meeting in respect of the Bush Post Primary School in that region. The issue there relates to traffic calming and safety measures. I will follow up with the local authority. We need to ensure we can deliver a solution for these parents and children.
