Joint Oireachtas Committee on Climate Action

Decarbonising Transport: Discussion (Resumed)

Mr. Hugh Creegan:

No, the costs are still broadly in line with what the expectations were.

There was a large allocation of €2 billion given in the national development plan towards BusConnects and we still see that as being the right allocation. One factor affecting the timeline is that there are a large number of corridors, as most people are aware. All of them will be ready to go to An Bord Pleanála in the coming months. Later on this year they will all be ready for submission to An Bord Pleanála. After that, the timeline is dictated by what happens then and how quickly the approval process completes at that stage.
