The improvement and maintenance of regional and local roads is the statutory responsibility of the relevant local authority in accordance with the provisions of Section 13 of the Roads Act 1993. Works on those roads are funded from the Council's own resources supplemented by State road grants.

Local authorities were notified of the Department's regional and local road allocations for 2019 including those for CIS on the 1st February 2019. Details of the regional and local road grant allocations to local authorities are outlined in the regional and local road grant booklets which are available in the Oireachtas Library.
