Joint Oireachtas Committee on Jobs, Enterprise and Innovation

Reactivation of Economy Following Pandemic Restrictions: Discussion (Resumed)

Mr. Richard Shakespeare:

We have to balance everything out. The people who use those car parks are also people who participate in city life, be they fully abled, partially abled or somewhat disabled. This requires balancing between all the various people. We have 25 pedestrianised areas throughout the city and we hope to expand those. As Deputy O'Reilly will be aware, we are piloting different areas at different times of the day and night to see what works best. It is a delicate balance because the car park owners have rights and the car parks are needed to facilitate business and people coming into the city.
