It featured a guest address from member of the European Parliament’s Transport Committee, Cynthia Ni Mhurchu MEP, with leader of Independent Ireland, Michael Collins TD and Mayor of Limerick, John Moran also in attendance at periods during the day.
Speaking following the AGM, David Conway said the following, “It is an honour to be elected chair of the CTTC and to have the opportunity to lead this group of vitally important representatives of the commercial bus and coach sector in Ireland. Our members provide strategic transport connectivity across the country and our contribution to our national carbon emission reduction targets cannot be underestimated.
“As plans for decarbonising the transport sector in Ireland and across the EU are underway, making the voice of the commercial bus sector heard is crucial from a tourism and transport perspective. The CTTC has consistently made the case for our operators to be supported, and, under my leadership, it will continue to do so. I want to thank William Martin for his dedicated and successful leadership over the past two years.”
Among the key priorities of the CTTC include reduced transport fares for passengers, funding support for the deployment of alternatively fueled vehicles, enhanced infrastructure to enable consumers to make the modal shift.
