Every city and town in the country has to be a model of sustainability, especially Galway. I know there has been a fairly divisive row in Galway in respect of the ring road that has gone on for a long, long time. By the way, light rail and a proper road system are not mutually exclusive either. I do not know why park and ride has not happened in Galway. That is fundamentally a matter for the local authority.
