Dáil Éireann Debate, Tuesday - 31 January 2023
214. Deputy Jennifer Whitmore asked the Minister for Transport when the feasibility study on the re-opening of Avoca train station will begin and be completed; if he will provide an outline of what the study will consider; if a public consultation will form part of the study; if this study will include nearby stations such as Glenealy; and if he will make a statement on the matter. [4280/23]
Amharc ar fhreagraAs Minister for Transport, I have responsibility for policy and overall funding in relation to public transport. The National Transport Authority (NTA) has statutory responsibility for the planning and development of public transport infrastructure in the Greater Dublin Area, including any feasibility study on the re-opening of Avoca train station.
Noting the NTA's responsibility in the matter, I have referred the Deputy's question to the NTA for a more detailed reply on the specific issue raised. Please contact my private office if you do not receive a reply within 10 days.
