The provision and improvement of non-national roads in County Cork is a matter for Cork County Council to be funded from its own resources supplemented by State grants. In August this year, my Department sought applications from road authorities for funding under the 2006 EU co-financed specific improvements grant scheme. The initial selection of projects to be submitted for consideration for funding under this scheme is a matter for road authorities.

Cork County Council submitted a number of applications but these did not include an application for funding for Glanworth Bridge, Glanworth, County Cork.
