Deputy Michael Moynihan clearly articulated in his response the importance of these improvement works and, indeed, the State's obligation to ensure the safety of our road network is up to specification to ensure we mitigate any collisions and have adequate safety processes in place. I will raise the Deputy's concerns with the Minister for Transport and ask that TII provide an update concerning its discussions with Cork County Council.

I understand the priority and urgency attached to it because it is important in our road network that we protect life and ensure the infrastructure is up-to-date and as safe as possible. I will undertake to revert to the Minister for Transport on the Deputy's behalf.
