It will be transformational. Mr. Owens spoke about 24-7 bus lanes. These can be tricky local issues for politicians but that is when people on our side of the table need to be strong and say we are going to back public transport in a real way. We need to be strong when these tricky issues come up because they are not tricky. We need 24-7 bus lanes, tailor-made cycle lanes and traffic lights dedicated purely to them. This is how journey times are reduced and journeys become comfortable for people coming from the north end of Swords to where we are sitting today.
