Board of works roads

joethegrinder

can someone tell me has the office of public works anything to do with country local roads or

Has the councils complete control

L1011

OPW has nothing to do with them.

Council look after L and R roads, TII financially look after M and N roads but the councils do most of the actual work for them.

I am applying for planning permission to start a quarry on my land and they say the road up

To it needs to be bonded . There will be water that needs to be pumped out and down a ditch

Along the road which connects to a burn. Will this bring the office of public works into it

Will they be contacted

L1011

The OPW are effectively the state's facilities management arm. So no.

The council, the EPA and possibly Irish Water will all be very involved in that scenario.

joethegrinder

so what your saying is ,the Opw tell the councils what to do and how to go about it

No, he's clearly saying the OPW has nothing to do with it.

No.

The OPW are not relevant here, at all.
