Dáil Éireann Debate, Tuesday - 14 July 2026
127. Deputy Aindrias Moynihan asked the Minister for Transport the up-to-date position of advancing improvement project works at Macroom bus station/depot, Macroom, County Cork; to provide full details and plans for the works and timeline for commencement of the works; and if he will make a statement on the matter. [52916/26]
View answerAs 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, including the provision and upgrade of public transport, such as bus stations and depots.
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 working days.
Pending this detailed response, I note the commitments in the Programme for Government to ensure that public transport operators provide safe and accessible access for all passengers, and to work with local authorities and national bodies to improve public transport options and infrastructure.
