Joint Oireachtas Committee on Transport, Tourism and Sport

Accessibility of Public Transport for People with Disabilities: Discussion (Resumed)

1:30 pm

Mr. Kevin Traynor:

Local authorities have their own transport infrastructural plans. We in the Coach Tourism and Transport Council of Ireland have piloted what we refer to as coach-friendly locations where certain local authorities have come on board, where we have strategic criteria in giving an award to a coach-friendly location. To a degree, the individual local authority's commitments and the proportion of its budget it will give to the provision of accessibility depends on the budget constraints under which it operates, along with the infrastructure that is there already.
