The forest service of my Department provides grant-aid for the construction of forest roads at development stage and at harvesting stage. A comprehensive manual is available setting out the detailed specifications for such roads, taking account of site requirements, site conditions, health and safety and the environment.

The level of grant available is based on the costs incurred, up to a maximum of €45 per linear meter.
