The provision and maintenance of regional and local roads in County Kilkenny is a matter for Kilkenny County Council to be funded from its own resources supplemented by State grants provided by my Department. In 2008, a grant of €1,375,186 was allocated to Kilkenny County Council for the R700 Thomastown Relief Road. Progress with the project is a matter for Kilkenny County Council.
