Dáil Éireann Debate, Wednesday - 31 January 2024
20. Deputy Patrick Costello asked the Minister for Transport if he will instruct the NTA to ensure the Dublin Bus route 74 will serve Crumlin village or, in lieu of this, to expedite the proposed 82 route. [4420/24]
Amharc ar fhreagraAs Minister for Transport, I have responsibility for policy and overall funding in relation to public transport; however, I am not involved in the day-to-day operations of public transport. The National Transport Authority (NTA) has statutory responsibility for securing the provision of public passenger transport services nationally and for the scheduling and timetabling of these services in conjunction with the relevant transport operators.
In light of the Authority's responsibility in this area, I have forwarded the Deputy's question to the NTA for direct reply. Please advise my private office if you do not receive a response within ten working days.
