Road Projects

Cathal Byrne (Fine Gael)
I welcome the Minister of State's commitment to this important infrastructure for County Wexford. Given the Government will shortly announce a series of measures on how the delivery of strategic infrastructure projects might be accelerated, can consideration be given to including the Oylegate to Rosslare Harbour motorway when those proposals are published? It is important infrastructure for County Wexford and I cannot stress enough the impact the success of Rosslare Europort is having on local communities there. A lady said to me during the week that the Wexford ring road is now effectively like a car park at times coming up to sailings. As we now have 75 sailings a week, up from 20 pre-Brexit, the Minister of State can imagine the impact that has on local residents.
