Joint Oireachtas Committee on Transport, Tourism and Sport

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

1:30 pm

Ms Anne Graham:

In terms of the intercity service, Irish Rail has proposed that it will have a host available on every train service. If that is the case then one can offer the service on each train service. There should not be any issue with the service unless there is an issue with trying to get out of the station.

The DART and commuter services are another area where the service has sought to put improvements in place and a pilot scheme is under way. We will examine the scheme with the organisation once the pilot scheme has been completed. We will analyse whether the level of service is acceptable or whether we need to do more.
