Provision of Economic Advisory Services related to Public Transport Provision

National Transport Authority

The Authority has responsibility for securing the provision of public passenger
land transport services including the provision of subvented bus and rail services.
Currently the subvented services are provided under directly awarded Public
Service Obligation Contracts with Bus ร‰ireann, Dublin Bus and Irish Rail. There
are also a number of smaller contracts for specific services requiring subvention
that the Authority has awarded following tender competitions. The contracts were
awarded in December 2009 and are for a period of 5 years for the bus services
and 10 years for the rail services. Transport Infrastructure Ireland (TII formerly
known as the Railway Procurement Agency) manages the operation of the Luas
light rail service on assignment from the Authority. In addition the Authority also
licenses public bus passenger services and has responsibility for the regulation
of the small public service vehicle sector (i.e. taxis, hackneys and limousines).
Arising from this remit, the Authority proposes to engage a Consultant to provide
Economic Advisory Services related to Public Transport to the Authority.
