20. Deputy John McGuinness asked the Minister for Transport the progress on the extension of the existing bus routes in Kilkenny city to include new housing estates, businesses and schools located in the environs of the city; and the availability of funding for such projects and the process and timeline involved. [50741/25]
View answerAs Minister of State with responsibility for Rural Transport, 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 NTA’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.
