I am informed by the Garda authorities that under Dublin City Council by-laws all vehicles whose laden weight is deemed to be three tonnes or over are prohibited from parking on streets within the Dublin City Council administrative area except at designated parking locations for such vehicles. The only signage relating to these by-laws is erected by Dublin City Council at the boundaries to the Dublin city administrative area at the city limits on the main artery roads into the city. Signage is not provided on any individual roads or streets within the city limits. Signs are provided at 16 designated parking locations for heavy goods vehicles, HGV's, throughout the city where such vehicles can park. These locations are listed in a booklet produced by Dublin City Council in June 2005. The location mentioned by the Deputy is not listed in this booklet.
