The Government has been successful in ensuring public transport workers and infrastructure feel like they have been insulated for the most part. The Expressway service is a non-PSO service run by Bus Éireann and it is a vital service that must be retained in some fashion. The PSO services have been comforted by the funding that has been there this year and I hope that will continue.

Many projects such as MetroLink, the DART upgrade and BusConnects are in desk-based phases of their evolution. What impact will Covid have on the furthering of these projects in terms of delays or are they still on track?
