Dáil Éireann Debate, Thursday - 20 June 2013
261. Deputy Thomas P. Broughan asked the Minister for Transport, Tourism and Sport if he will outline to the Dáil current proposals for rapid bus transport systems in the greater Dublin region; and the stage at which the research is being carried on by the RPA into such facilities. [29712/13]
View answerAs Minister for Transport, Tourism and Sport I have responsibility for policy and overall funding in relation to public transport. Following the establishment of the National Transport Authority, NTA, in December 2009, the implementation and development of infrastructure projects in the Greater Dublin Area, GDA, such as Bus Rapid Transport, comes under the remit of the NTA. 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 ten working days.
