Joint Oireachtas Committee on Transport, Tourism and Sport

Road Traffic and Roads Bill 2021, and Disability and Transport: Discussion

Ms June Tinsley:

True. Exactly so. It behoves us all to make sure that the legislation is as robust as possible to ensure the safety of pedestrians. The minimum we think needs to be enshrined in the legislation is a prohibition on footpaths, a reduction of the speed limit, the installation of sound as a safety feature, clear designated parking and a minimum age.
