It is important that everyone can access public transport safely. At Clongriffin DART station, there is an urgent need for safe, universal public access to be provided for commuters from Baldoyle. Recently, a decision was taken by a developer to close this access after midnight. This means that shift workers returning home on the night bus are cut off from getting back to their homes in Baldoyle when they get off the bus. There is an urgent need to reopen the access on a 24 -hour basis. There is an urgent need to provide safe, universal public access. Will the Tánaiste ask the Minister, Eamon Ryan, to visit the area to see for himself how bad the access is to public transport? When will the Government act to ensure there is safe, universal access to public transport for people in the area?
