One of the criticisms about transport planning and land use planning is that sometimes they do not align with each other, where one has the National Transport Authority, NTA, responsible for, for example, the greater Dublin area transport strategy.

There are development plans as well. The planners, the local authorities and the councillors do not have control over transport capacity or transport delivery. Do you see that there has been better alignment in recent years in transport planning and land use planning?
