Joint Oireachtas Committee on Transport, Tourism and Sport

Transport Strategy for the Greater Dublin Region: Discussion

Ms Janis Morrissey:

I will briefly add to that point. Another potential area for a quick win would be the introduction of a 30 km per hour zone in urban areas. Coming from an inclusivity and equity point of view, as we illustrated with the scenarios at the start of our statement, we represent children as much as older people. It is important that the voices of children and young people are included in our conversation today. There is a real opportunity to create more liveable and appropriate spaces for young people to enjoy their local communities with recreational opportunities as well as travelling to school. I would propose that as another option.
