4. Archaeology and the National Roads Authority Dáire O’Rourke Bronze Age ditched enclosure (centre left) at Tullyallen 1, County Louth, on the M1 Drogheda Bypass (Valerie J Keeley Ltd) Functions of the National Roads Authority The National Roads Authority (NRA) was established in 1994, as an independent statutory body under the Roads Act 1993. The NRA’s primary function is to secure the provision of a safe and efficient network of national roads. Its current programme of new road schemes forms part of the government’s overall strategy for the improvement of national infrastructure. More specific functions are prescribed by the 1993 Act, including the following: • preparing or arranging for the preparation of national road designs • securing the carrying out of construction, improvement and maintenance works on national roads • allocating and paying grants for national roads. 19 Archaeology and the National Roads Authority A view of a Bronze Age ditched enclosure at Tullyallen 1, County Louth, on the M1 Drogheda Bypass (Valerie J Keeley Ltd) Historically, the NRA has discharged its functions through the relevant local authorities (though it is also empowered to carry out such functions directly). Under Section 20 of the Roads Act 1993 the NRA has general power to direct a road authority (i.e. a local authority) to ‘do any other thing which arises out of or is consequential on or is necessary or expedient for the purposes of or would facilitate the construction or maintenance of a national road.’ Funding Funding of the NRA is primarily in the form of grants from the Minister for Environment and Local Government. -

The Tara/Skryne Valley and the M3 Motorway; Development Vs. Heritage
L . o . 4 .0 «? ■ U i H NUI MAYNOOTH Qll*c«il n> h£jf**nn Ml Nuad The Tara/Skryne Valley and the M3 Motorway; Development vs. Heritage. Edel Reynolds 2005 Supervisor: Dr. Ronan Foley Head of Department: Professor James Walsh Thesis submitted in partial fulfillment of the requirements of the M.A. (Geographical Analysis), Department of Geography, National University of Ireland, Maynooth. Abstract This thesis is about the conflict concerning the building of the MB motorway in an archaeologically sensitive area close to the Hill of Tara in Co. Meath. The main aim of this thesis was to examine the conflict between development and heritage in relation to the Tara/Skryne Valley; therefore the focus has been to investigate the planning process. It has been found that both the planning process and the Environmental Impact Assessment system in Ireland is inadequate. Another aspect of the conflict that was explored was the issue of insiders and outsiders. Through the examination of both quantitative and qualitative data, the conclusion has been reached that the majority of insiders, people from the Tara area, do in fact want the M3 to be built. This is contrary to the idea that was portrayed by the media that most people were opposed to the construction of the motorway. Acknowledgements Firstly, I would like to thank my supervisor, Ronan Foley, for all of his help and guidance over the last few months. Thanks to my parents, Helen and Liam and sisters, Anne and Nora for all of their encouragement over the last few months and particularly the last few days! I would especially like to thank my mother for driving me to Cavan on her precious day off, and for calming me down when I got stressed! Thanks to Yvonne for giving me the grand tour of Cavan, and for helping me carry out surveys there. -
