The Transport Minister has pledged to support the upgrade of the N28 Cork to Ringaskiddy Road however he says it will be a tough balancing act.
Pascal Donohue was Leeside yesterday where he was lobbied to ensure adequate investment is in place to ensure the delivery of the N28 Cork to Ringaskiddy Road and the M20 Cork-Limerick motorway.
It follows recent calls by IBEC to prioritise the delivery of these upgrades.
