The local authority just ensures that these conform or are properly regulated. If planning permission is not required, there is a letter of compliance if there are remedial works. Is the NTA not in a position to give the local authorities money to undertake the works? For example, the local authorities maintain our national secondary roads and primary roads but they get the money from Transport Infrastructure Ireland, TII. The local authorities are agents. Is the onus not on the NTA to provide local authorities with the few bob to upgrade these bus stops-----
