Forget the beautification of our roundabouts, fix our potholes! The National Roads Authority, which then became Transport Infrastructure Ireland (TII), was set up in the 1990s to assume responsibility for the national road network. Ireland’s national road network consists of 2,739km (1,702 miles) of National Primary Routes and 2,676km (1,663 miles) of National Secondary Routes. Some county councils have invested in special motorised machines to repair roads quickly and efficiently but I wonder if Cork County Council has. Cork County Council is upgrading them across the county and the roundabout at Halfway, on the Cork to Bandon road, is the first to get a revamp.
