Inclusive Sustainable Cycling (ISCycle): Inclusive E-bike Uptake and Sustainable Use SEAI Co-fund. The Department is co-funding 50% of the overall project costs over 3 years and paid €107,119 in 2022
Limerick EV Strategy €88,312.03 – to Limerick City and County Council
Regional and Local Roads Grant Programme. The end of year figure for grants to Limerick City and County Council is not available as yet but will be included in the Regional and Local Road Grant Programme payment booklet which will be lodged in the Oireachtas library in the New Year. €19,709,787
My Department also allocates funding directly to the National Transport Authority and Irish Rail for public transport investment and services. I have referred your question to the National Transport Authority and Irish Rail for a direct reply, concerning public transport funding in Limerick under their remit.
