Joint Oireachtas Committee on Transport, Tourism and Sport
National Transport Authority: Chairperson Designate
Mr. Peter Strachan:
Yes, it was a game changer. To the point about cycling, when we are making those interventions it should not just be about buses. BusConnects is a bit of a misnomer, because it also includes considering what else we can do with the road space available to us to make cycling as a form of active travel as safe and attractive as possible. I use the word "safe" deliberately because that is what puts people off cycling the most. They are frightened of not being safe on the road.
