Joint Oireachtas Committee on Transport, Tourism and Sport
National Development Plan: Discussion
Ms Anne Graham:
I will address the question on services and then ask my colleague, Mr. Creegan, to respond on the N11 question. On services, at peak time in particular we try to run a mixture of express-type services that suit commuter-type travel from point to point. Off peak, we operate multi-point stopping services which serve local trips. As in the case of Dublin and in other parts of our cities, there are express services serving peak commuter travel times with multi-stop services for off-peak travel. It is important to have a mixture of both services. What the Deputy suggests would be under consideration. If consideration was being given to priority services, it would be important to make the most of that priority by providing point-to-point services. I will hand over to Mr. Creegan to respond to the other question.
