Dáil Éireann Debate, Wednesday - 17 January 2024
246. Deputy Sean Sherlock asked the Minister for Transport the number of submissions received under the latest round of consultation for BusConnects Cork; and the amount spent in total on all three rounds of consultation, by subject line and the date for the publication of the statutory round of consultation for the sustainable transport corridors, in tabular form. [1252/24]
View answerAs Minister for Transport, I have responsibility for policy and overall funding in relation to public transport. The National Transport Authority (NTA) has responsibility for the planning and development of public transport infrastructure, including BusConnects Cork.
The BusConnects Cork Sustainable Transport Corridors - Preferred Route Options Public Consultation Round 3 was undertaken from 6 November to 18 December 2023. All submissions are available to view and download in tabular form to excel on the BusConnects Cork public consultation portal at consult.nationaltransport.ie.
Noting the NTA's responsibility in the matter, I have referred the Deputy's question to the NTA for a direct reply. Please contact my private office if you do not receive a reply within 10 days.
