I am informed by the Garda authorities that the location referred to is within the Clontarf Garda Sub-District. Local Garda management has no record of complaints of speeding by the transport provider referred to at the location. Any offences coming to the attention of An Garda Síochána will be investigated and dealt with appropriately. There is a designated community Garda for the area who is in regular contact with the residents of the area, which is regularly patrolled by mountain bike, foot and mobile patrols, including the Divisional Traffic Unit, which has carried out checkpoints at the location.

Local Garda management closely monitors and keeps under review patrols and other operational strategies in place, in conjunction with crime trends and policing needs of the communities in the area, to ensure optimum use is made of Garda resources and the best possible Garda service is provided to the public. The deployment of Garda traffic resources is prioritised with the objective of preventing traffic collisions.
