The NTA also deals with walking and cycling. I read an interesting statistic recently. The sizeable and good investment in Luas results in fewer people coming into the city than the number that cycle, where there has been a relatively small investment. Will that be recalibrated because we are looking at people changing behaviour? Luas is a sustainable means of transport, but investment in walking and cycling seem to be very good. Why does that get such little funding when there is such a good return?
