The provision of cycle paths and cycle parking spaces is a matter for local authorities in the first instance as well as pubic transport providers.

In the case of the GDA, a DTO survey in July 2007 found that there were 1606 cycle parking spaces in the vicinity of cycle tracks in Dublin. This does not include formally provided parking spaces at Luas and suburban rail stations, or in city locations not adjacent to cycle paths (e.g. Stephen's Green).
