Special Committee on Covid-19 Response

Travel Restrictions

Ms Anne Graham:

That is the work that is ongoing with both Dublin City Council and the other local authorities.

It is to identify projects that can be put in place on a temporary basis, those that are planned and are part of the cycling or walking networks that are part of our transport strategies for all cities. Where possible, if local authorities can identify a space where a temporary barrier could be put to provide additional walking and cycling space, we want to receive those proposals so we can move as quickly as possible to put them in place. Dublin has started with the Liffey quays on the northside and a number of other projects such as that on Nassau Street. We want to see more and as much of those as possible put in place, particularly before we move into the later phases of the easing of restrictions.
