Joint Oireachtas Committee on Transport, Tourism and Sport

A Vision for Public Transport: Discussion

1:30 pm

Ms Anne Graham:

Deputy Troy made a point about the funding shortfall. We have presented that we require €500 million for the provision of the transport services we believe are required for the region over the next 20 years. The shortfall is in the order of €300 million per year. Obviously, we would like that level of funding to be made available so we can meet the objectives of the transport strategy. Four projects are in planning.
