To ask the Minister for Transport, Tourism and Sport in relation to the Red Line Luas service from Citywest to the city centre, which a regular Luas commuter has reported to be increasingly unreliable, with growing patterns of regular service discontinuation over incidents of different kinds, including Luas infrastructure failure, if he will inquire into the reasons for the lack of a reliable, regular and predictable Luas service; and outline what specifically is being done to improve the service.

As the Minister for Transport, I have responsibility for policy and overall funding in relation to public transport; however, I am not involved in the day-to-day operations of public transport.
The issues raised are operational matters for Transport Infrastructure Ireland (TII) in conjunction with the Luas operator Transdev Ireland, and I have therefore forwarded the Deputy's question to the TII for direct reply.
Please advise my private office if you do not receive a response within ten working days.
