Question:

1761. Deputy Noel Rock asked the Minister for Transport, Tourism and Sport if, in view of major infrastructural works taking place in the North West of Dublin, specifically the ambitious €230 million investment in new DCU facilities, he will liaise with Dublin City Council to provide for expedited capital investment in an expanded Dublin bikes scheme, provided the roll-out timeline is reconfigured based on changes since it was compiled several years ago.

The National Transport Authority (NTA) is responsible for the administration and development of the Dublin public bikes scheme in cooperation with the relevant local authority, in this case Dublin City Council. I have forwarded your question to the NTA for consideration and direct response to you.  If you have not received a reply within 10 working days please contact my office.
