‹ Ceisteanna—Questions. Oral Answers. - Public Transport. Road adoption blocking estate bus services
Summary
Kelly argued that the Environment Department should resolve delays in taking new-estate roads in charge, which prevent bus services. The Minister agreed and said he was surprised the problem remained unresolved.
Just one more question. Adverting to the problem created by the non-taking in charge of roads in new estates and the consequent inability of the State transport monopoly to provide public transport in these estates, would the Minister agree that this is a classic example of a problem which a Department of the Environment, worth its name, ought to be able to iron out?
Comment on this
I accept that a Department of the Environment should be able to iron it out and I am, in fact, surprised it was not ironed out over the last four years.
