Joint Oireachtas Committee on Transport, Tourism and Sport

Transport Infrastructure Ireland Projects and Related Issues: Discussion

Mr. Peter Walsh:

I will need to defer to the NTA on the Cork light rail project. It is developing the transport strategy along with the Cork local authorities. As an agency required to deliver light rail infrastructure, we will do what is required to deliver what is decided. I cannot comment further on that.

Regarding the greenway, regional management is under Mr. O'Neill and our head of roads and greenways, Geraldine Fitzpatrick. I am sure our regional manager there, Paul Moran, is in regular contact with Cork County Council and will continue to do so. I believe we had about 80 greenways on the books as of last October. I do not know I can promise to meet with representatives of individual greenways. I do not mean it in any disrespect to this particular greenway, but our regional management is very well placed to deal with those projects.
