€336k Leinster House bike shelter 'not acceptable' value for taxpayer, says OPW boss
The bike shed which is situated at Government Buildings on the far side of Leinster House.
The Office of Public Works (OPW) must “seriously reflect on” the circumstances which saw it pay an “extraordinary” €336,000 for a bike shelter on the grounds of Leinster House, the body’s chair has said.
In a report into the tendering and construction of the covered bike shed, John Conlon said that the cost of delivering the bike rack, which provides just 18 bicycle spaces, “is completely not acceptable” in the context of value for money for the taxpayer.
