  • Railway Procurement Agency (Irish: An Ghníomhaireacht um Fháil Iarnród) is a State Agency of the Department of Transport in the Republic of Ireland charged with the development of light railway and metro infrastructure. It was established in December 2001 under the Transport (Railway Infrastructure) Act 2001. Many of the staff of the agency came from the Light Rail Project Office of Córas Iompair Éireann (CIÉ), which dissolved upon the RPA's inception. The agency operates completely independently of CIÉ. The RPA's main role is overseeing the operation of the Luas system, along with the planning of new Luas and Metro lines for Dublin as laid out under the Irish Governments Transport 21 investment programme. The operation of the Luas is contracted out to Veolia, and the RPA are responsible for monitoring their performance. The agency has no role in the mainline railway system, which is operated by Iarnród Éireann (a subsidiary of CIÉ). The RPA are also in charge of developing an integrated ticketing system for all public transport modes in Dublin. This is currently due to commence trials in late 2011.
