Joint Oireachtas Committee on Transport, Tourism and Sport

Engagement with Chairpersons Designate of Public Bodies

9:30 am

Mr. Cormac O'Rourke:

With regard to roads, there are seven projects with planning ready to go to tender, a number are in construction and quite a number of others are at pre-planning approval stage. There are no light rail projects ready to go to tender or, indeed, even ready to go for a railway order. Metro north should start the railway order process next year. Regarding BusConnects, it is not clear to me yet whether we or the NTA would be responsible, but I think it is the NTA. We have done work for the NTA on the BusConnects projects but we do not have any now of which I am aware. However, we have done design work for the NTA on at least two projects.
