N4 road upgrade

Summary

Senator Comiskey seeks funding to upgrade the dangerous N4 between Drumfin and Castlebaldwin after another fatality.

I wish to raise the upgrade of the N4 road from Drumfin to Castlebaldwin. Sadly, another death occurred on the road last night and I offer my condolences to the family of the young man who lost his life. I believe 30 people have died on the road. It is the worst stretch of road between Dublin and Sligo and it is time all efforts were made in this regard. I call on the NRA and the Minister to make the funding available. Much work has been done by Sligo County Council on the issue and many studies have been done. If the money were put in place we could finally see the upgrade of the road, which has been sought for many years. It is time we move on it and upgrade it.
