As Minister for Transport, I have responsibility for policy and overall funding in relation to Active Travel. Funding is administered through the National Transport Authority (NTA), who, in partnership with local authorities, have responsibility for the selection and development of specific projects in each local authority area.

It is therefore a matter for the NTA to engage with the relevant stakeholders in relation to various projects being progressed, however officials in the Department of Transport will raise this matter with the NTA during regular bilateral meetings.
