To answer the Deputy's question, in the past year we also introduced a major new transport demand management modelling exercise and plan to help close the gap in transport.

For some of the measures, for example, what we plan to do in Dublin city centre this summer, the EPA has not modelled them because it does not find it easy to model those sorts of projected changes. How could it model whether Dublin City Council will actually follow through on the sorts of changes we want and need to make? Therefore, there are a whole variety of different additional actions, which Government introduced in the last year, which will help close the gap.
