Dáil Éireann Debate, Tuesday - 17 November 2020
213. Deputy Thomas Gould asked the Minister for Transport if he will intervene in a situation in which the NTA is refusing to consider redevelopment and the movement of an unsuitable bus stop at a location (details supplied) despite the significant damage this is having to the feasibility of usage of public transport by local residents and in view of the current push towards public transport. [36402/20]
View answerAs Minister for Transport, I have responsibility for policy and overall funding in relation to public transport.
The National Transport Authority (NTA) has statutory responsibility for the planning and development of public transport infrastructure, including the provision of bus stops/shelters.
Noting the NTA's responsibility in the matter, I have referred the Deputy's question to the NTA for a direct reply. Please contact my private office if you do not receive a reply within 10 days.
