asked the Minister for the Environment the yearly average of vehicular traffic on the Derry-Buncrana road; and how it compares nationally with other roads of similar classifications.

The annual average daily traffic on the Derry-Buncrana road (between Bridge End and Buncrana) was 3,570 vehicles in 1976. This is the latest date for which figures for this road are available as traffic counts are not taken regularly on regional roads. Comparative figures are not available for regional roads generally.
