Joint Oireachtas Committee on Housing, Planning and Local Government

Update on Affordable Homes, Public Lands, Strategic Planning and Projects: Land Development Agency

Mr. Phelim O'Neill:

We have engaged with the NTA, but also obviously with the city council also on the transport strategy as part of the planning application, and more recently as part of the overall delivery of the scheme. The Deputy mentioned that proximity to the major areas of education and employment will be critical. What we are trying to do is deliver permeability through existing schemes, down to the Lee Road. We are not in control of the bus service but we are certainly advocating improved bus services in the area.
