National Transport Authority

What this means

• The National Transport Authority (NTA) is a public body set up under Irish law to secure and regulate public passenger transport services across Ireland.[source]
• The NTA licenses bus services and small public service vehicles, and works to develop integrated transport in the Greater Dublin area.[source]
• The government has committed to rolling out contactless payment across public transport, a project the NTA is currently working on.[source]
• A new public transport security force has been promised by the government, which will fall within the NTA's area of responsibility.[source]
• Tracking these commitments matters for accountability, as the public can see whether promised transport improvements are being delivered on time.[source]
