Dublin Traffic: Motion [Private Members] (20 Feb 2018)

Ruth Coppinger: This is a critical issue because the capital city is obviously completely congested at key times. It was interesting that the Taoiseach got caught in a traffic jam a couple of weeks back and spoke about it taking 70 minutes from Castleknock into the city centre.
