Okay, but the amount of money that was spent on the project was obviously hugely more than the average Joe punter would give for a bike shelter. In fact, a lot of commercial companies were memeing about the fact that the OPW spent €335,000 on a bike shelter and they could do it for a fraction of that cost. When did it become apparent internally in the OPW that this amount of money had been spent on such a simple, 18-bike stand? It works out at €18,600 per bike.
