Joint Oireachtas Committee on Rural and Community Development

Rural Transport Policy: Discussion (Resumed)

10:30 am

Ms Anne Graham:

Yes, 2027.

Obviously we are concerned by increasing anti-social behaviour on our public transport services. We would not like to see that on our pilot services. We would have to see what additional measure we will have to take if there were to be increased anti-social behaviour on our public transport.

Delivering BusConnects in Galway is in the national development plan. No Luas is proposed for Galway in either the national planning framework or the national development plan. In the transport strategy that we developed, the demand levels are not at the level they need to be to support a light rail service. The plan is to have improvements in bus services across Galway.

I will hand over to my colleague to respond to Deputy O'Keeffe..
