​The National Transport Authority (NTA) is responsible for the development of public transport infrastructure in the Greater Dublin Area and the NTA's Transport Strategy for the Greater Dublin Area 2016-2035provides a framework for the planning and delivery of transport infrastructure and services in the region over the next two decades. In light of the NTA's responsibility in this area, I have referred the Deputy's question to the Authority for a more detailed reply in relation to access to and from Beaumont Hospital under future transport infrastructure projects in north Dublin. Please advise my private office if you do not receive a reply within ten working days.
