National Transport Authority: Financial Statements 2020

Mr. Hugh Creegan:

To take BusConnects as an example, we hope that the planning applications will start to go into An Bord Pleanála in a couple of months’ time. It will depend on how quickly they go through that process, because there are 12 of them. Hopefully, not all of them will be subject to challenges. Depending on planning process, we could get shovels into the ground next year. We would like to see construction on BusConnects starting next year.
