The 2020 forecast ceiling for capital investment set out for Transport, Tourism and Sport is €2.058 billion. This compares to an actual allocation of €1.586 billion for 2019 which is an increase of €472 million from 2019 to 2020.

The planned increase in the capital ceiling for this Department is to support increasing investment across a range of capital projects managed by the Department mainly in the areas of Public Transport and Roads, as set out in the Project Ireland 2040 Tracker, available at the following link.
