Joint Oireachtas Committee on Transport

Urban Public and Sustainable Transport: Discussion

2:00 am

Mr. Stephen Kent:

We have been allocated the vehicles. There are definitely double-deckers. If we do not have them on a particular day, a breakdown or an incident could have impacted that, but vehicles are allocated to that route that have double-deck capacity. These are supported by the NTA. We know a lot of routes around the country, and there are a number of them, require higher capacity vehicles, as the Deputy said. We only have what we have, but there are more coming and on the way. In the interim, we have to try to continue feeding back, which we do with the NTA, where we have overloads and capacity issues. We do that to see whether we can do it.
