Can I give some examples of why I disagree with that? First, Transport Infrastructure Ireland, TII, appeared before the Committee on Transport, Tourism and Sport and was asked about its key transport objectives in terms of tackling gridlock in Dublin. The answer was that it was going to widen the N11, N7, N6, N4, N3 and N2, thus allowing for greater long-distance commuter traffic into Dublin, despite Dublin being gridlocked. How does that fit in with the NPF objectives of compact development?
