Amharc ar fhreagraAs Minister for Transport, Tourism and Sport I have responsibility for policy and overall funding in relation to public transport. The National Transport Authority (NTA) has statutory responsibility to secure or provide cycling infrastructure in the Greater Dublin Area and works with the local authorities in Cork, Limerick, Galway and Waterford in delivering similar infrastructure there.
Noting the NTA's responsibility in the matter, I have referred the Deputy's question to the NTA for a more detailed reply. I ask the Deputy to advise my private office if he does not receive a reply within 10 working days.
