View answerI propose to take Questions Nos. 311 and 312 together.
As Minister for Transport, I have responsibility for policy and overall funding in relation to public transport. The National Transport Authority, or NTA, has responsibility for planning and developing Park and Ride sites, and is leading the development and rollout of strategic park and ride sites nation-wide through the Park and Ride Development Office (PRDO).
The Programme for Government commits to working with local authorities and relevant agencies to develop affordable Park and Ride facilities on the outskirts of major towns and cities. The PRDO published a Park & Ride Strategy for the Greater Dublin Area as part of the NTA's Transport Strategy for the Greater Dublin Area 2022-2027. The Strategy sets out the vision and objectives for Park & Ride and identified the zones for strategic Park & Ride sites in this region.
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
