Joint Oireachtas Committee on Transport, Tourism and Sport

Situation at Dublin Airport: Discussion

Mr. Vincent Harrison:

A number of operators have not restored their services. We would deal with the National Transport Authority as to whether they are going to encourage those operators or to retender those routes. Then there are frequencies that need to return to viability. The DAA will be looking to put incentives in place to facilitate that.

Where BusConnects is being introduced, we are actively promoting that the Swords corridor and access to the airport be accelerated. I recommend this to the committee. In relation to car parking, the primary capacity issue has been the removal of a car park not operated by Dublin Airport. This facility is now for sale. We expect it to come into operation at some point when that concludes.
