Summary: The objectives of these guidelines are to:-
- Create an awareness of the effects that road projects may have on the environment.
- Enable Local Authority (LA) officers to assess the effects of individual projects.
- Enable the negative effects to be minimised and the positive effects to be maximised.
Road reserves in this State contain a valuable store of plants and wildlife. This particularly applies to the less developed roads under the control of rural LAs. It is, therefore, important for the effect on the enviroment to be assessed for smaller roadworks, as well as for major projects.
