Joint Oireachtas Committee on Transport

Urban Public and Sustainable Transport: Discussion

2:00 am

Mr. Stephen Kent:

A number of pilots are under way and have been committed to by the Department of education. Some of those are integrated services. There are pilots in Longford and Limerick, running into Clare. Once those pilots have been evaluated, there is potential for that type of integration. It relies not just on the running of the services, capacity, timing and schedules, but also on ticketing and how we integrate Leap ticketing. Those are the issues that are being worked through as part of the pilots. I would like to think there is definitely an opportunity, but it is all subject to funding and the outcome of those pilots. There are a number in the pipeline, being run through the Department of education in consultation with the NTA.
