The improvement and maintenance of non-national roads in north Tipperary county is a matter for North Tipperary County Council to be funded from its own resources supplemented by grants provided by the Department.
In June this year, local authorities were invited to submit proposals to the Department for inclusion in the 2006-08 restoration improvement programme. It is a matter for the council to determine its priorities for the county as a whole, including the Thurles electoral area, under this programme. A proposal has been received from North Tipperary County Council for restoration improvement works in the county under this programme. All proposals received from local authorities will be fully considered when road grants for 2006 are being determined early in the new year.
