Most main highways in Dublin are tertiary roads - bar the motorways? Oh wow.

@AkuAnakTimur there used to be way more. Few years ago (post financial crash) the government downgraded them to tertiary, because maintaining primary/etc roads is responsibility of central gov, but local roads is local government. This means central gov can claim to have reduced expenses for road upkeep

@AkuAnakTimur It gets "better": at the time (and still mostly now), all the income for local governments comes from.... central government!

Just moving money around to make it look like budget cutbacks. 😉
