Minister orders review into ‘incredibly expensive’ €336k bike shed

A breakdown of costs from the OPW shows that €322,282 (£271,755) was spent on the main construction and installation, €2,952 (£2,489) on archaeological services, and a further €10,816 (£9,120) was paid for contract administration services.

Minister Eamon Ryan has said the OPW has questions to answer around the project.

Mr Ryan said that it was “very important and good that we have bicycle sheds”, but said it “seem an incredibly expensive cost”.

“I look forward to listening to the OPW, talk to the OPW, as to why it was so expensive,” he added.

He said he was “shocked” at the price.

“We need to do things cheaper than that”.
