Eight major road upgrades around the country scheduled for this year have been shelved due to insufficient funding, according to Transport Infrastructure Ireland (TII).

The projects include planned upgrades to roads in Cork, Waterford, and Galway, all of which are national roads and earmarked for investment under various government plans, including the National Development Plan.
