Eamon Ryan's road raid: 'Potholes and pavements' money used to fill in overrun on Ryder Cup bypass
Briefly

The Transport Minister acknowledged that several new road projects are currently facing funding pressures, indicating that the priority of budgeting is impacting safety and development.
Contractors have expressed significant concern over the postponement of up to €50m worth of minor road upgrades, emphasizing that funding cuts will adversely affect the safety of the national road network.
Due to funding being diverted to cover budget overruns on major projects, such as the €500m Adare Bypass, several smaller road improvements are stalled.
The Adare Bypass construction is viewed as critical for the upcoming Ryder Cup, raising questions about the balance between high-profile developments and overall infrastructure safety.
