Dáil Éireann Debate, Monday - 11 September 2023
413. Deputy Jennifer Whitmore asked the Minister for Transport if he is aware that Kilcoole, County Wicklow train station is without adequate leap card infrastructure for customers, despite being in the short hop zone; if he will ensure that this infrastructure is installed as a matter of urgency; and if he will make a statement on the matter. [39313/23]
View answerAs Minister for Transport, I have responsibility for policy and overall funding in relation to public transport. The National Transport Authority (NTA) has agreed responsibility for the planning and development of public transport infrastructure, including ticketing technology.
Noting the NTA's responsibility in relation to this matter, I have referred the Deputy's question to the NTA for a direct reply. Please contact my private office if you do not receive a reply within 10 days.
