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

My Department has provided grant assistance to Donegal County Council for the planning and design of the R263 Fintra Bridge and Road Re-alignment Project and will continue to liaise with the Council in relation to progression of the scheme as programme budgets allow.
