As confirmed in a reply to a similar question on 5 February 2008 (Ceist 214) the position is as follows. In line with the recommendation outlined in the Phoenix Park Transportation Study published in September 2006, I wish to confirm that the OPW has so far agreed to facilitate a limited year round public transport service through the Park, and is assisting the relevant agencies in this regard. The Phoenix Park Transportation Study was produced following an extensive public consultation process with residents groups, Local Authorities, public representatives and other interested parties. A number of presentations on the completed Study were subsequently held for these groups.
