Department of Transport underspent €200m in first six months of 2023

Transport Minister Eamon Ryan said most of the underspend to the end of the second quarter is related to delays in public transport investment.
The Department of Transport underspent its budget by almost €200m in the first six months of this year, the majority of which concerns public transport projects and road safety.
The underspend of €100m in the second quarter comes after a failure to spend almost €100m at the end of the first quarter of this year.
