Paschal Donohoe (Dublin Central, Fine Gael) | Oireachtas source

I know road projects like these are extremely important and the role they can play in the prevention of congestion and in making transport on our roads safer. I am, indeed, responsible for the funding the Department of Transport has but I am not involved in decisions it makes concerning individual road projects. I am, however, familiar with the project the Deputy referred to. Government Oireachtas Members have also been raising this issue, so I will raise it with the Minister for Transport, Deputy Eamon Ryan, to seek to understand further the status of this project and how we can make progress on it.
