The type of fleet that the NTA buys is important in respect of the level of usage and, for example, for people with disabilities. I would not like to be the person being loaded onto one of the high-floor Bus Éireann buses. It is a bit of a scary experience. That is even if there is a space available on the bus. Is the NTA considering its future fleet from that point of view? Services need to be provided for people across the spectrum.
