Róisín Shortall (Dublin North West, Labour)

Recently I travelled from Whitehall to Newry. The M1 is a terrific new road but there was no place to stop between Whitehall and Newry. I was conscious of this because I wished to purchase petrol, but let us consider drivers who travel long distances and who are tired. Some wish to stop, have a cup of coffee and make a few telephone calls, but there is no way of doing this.
