Joint Oireachtas Committee on Transport

Rural Bus Transport: Discussion

2:00 am

Mr. Hugh Creegan:

We thought about it, and that is one of the reasons we are doing pilots first. We already have demand-responsive services in the Local Link ecosystem that do not require smartphones. People can call into the office and book their journeys. For this one, however, we will see what emerges out of the pilot to determine how big a problem that is. We understand this could be an issue for a small number of people. We will make a judgment in 12 months' time on what we need to do about that.
