As the implementation of road schemes and the arrangements in relation to individual landowners is a matter for the local authority concerned in the case of regional and local roads, I do not have this information.

In relation to national roads as this is a matter for the NRA/local authority concerned, I have referred the question to the NRA for direct reply. Please advise my private office if you don't receive a reply within 10 working days.
