Deputy Dessie Ellis asked the Minister for Transport, Tourism and Sport the work that has taken place to plan in conjunction with bodies such as Dublin City Council, the National Transport Authority and Railway Procurement Agency where taxi ranks will be restored and the new ranks that will be required for taxi following the completion of the new Luas line in order to provide the best link up transport provision possible.

View answerI propose to take Questions Nos. 686 and 687 together.
The provision of taxi ranks during and after the construction of the Luas Cross-City project is a matter for the National Transport Authority (NTA) in conjunction with Dublin City Council. Noting this I have referred the Deputy’s question to the NTA for direct reply. Please advise my private office if you do not receive a reply within 10 working days.
