Boylan calls for cross border infrastructure to be priority for Irish Government

Sinn Féin MLA Cathal Boylan has welcomed the announcement of €500m by the Irish Government for cross border infrastructure but said that more investment will be needed to deliver key strategic projects. 

 

The Sinn Féin Infrastructure Spokesperson said: 

 

“The announcement by the Irish Government that €500m will be committed to cross border infrastructure projects as part of the ‘New Decade, New Approach’ is a welcome development.  

 

“However, much more investment must be committed to develop connectivity between North and South. 

 

“Some key cross border infrastructure projects include the A5, Narrow Water Bridge, Derry-Belfast-Dublin-Limerick-Cork high speed rail, Sligo-Enniskillen Greenway and the Ulster Canal connection. 

 

“Enhancing the connectivity of our all-Ireland infrastructure is crucial to maximising our economic potential as an island. 

 

“Investment in all Ireland infrastructure cannot be a footnote in the plans of the Irish Government, but must be a central and core component of its work.

“Sinn Féin will continue to challenge the Irish government to ensure this funding is delivered and these key projects go ahead.”

Increasing Road Tolls while households are still battling to make ends meet during a cost of living crisis is wrong.They shouldn't go ahead.
Tolls disproportionately impact those living in rural areas who are forced to use a private car as public transport options just dont exist

All workers should receive a fair wage & have their rights protected. 

Too many workers right across our society are underpaid & undervalued, & are struggling with the rising cost of living.

We must work together to help put more money into the pockets of workers & families.

I wrote to @chhcalling last week emphasising the gravity of the political situation & need for urgent action.

Sinn Féin will now attend the political roundtable on Monday. 

We stand ready to engage on finances, which should conclude promptly, with the Executive immediately…
