View answer1465. Deputy John Curran asked the Minister for Transport, Tourism and Sport if the provision of an east-west Luas line to Lucan in parallel with the proposed new Clonburris SDZ can be now phased in, given the NTA's adapted transport strategy 2016 to 2035 which proposes its future development; and if he will make a statement on the matter.

View answerI propose to take Questions Nos. 1464 and 1465 together.
The National Transport Authority (NTA) has statutory responsiblity for the development and implementation of public transport and sustainable transport infrastructure in the Greater Dublin Area (GDA).
Noting the NTA's responsibility in the matter and their previous response to the Deputy of 19th October 2017, I have referred the Deputy's questions to the NTA for an update on the issues raised. Please advise my private office if the Deputy does not receive a reply within 10 working days.
