The National Transport Authority (NTA) in conjunction with Dublin City Council is responsible for the development of all cycling and walking infrastructure in the Greater Dublin Area (GDA). Accordingly, I have forwarded your request to the NTA and have asked them to reply to you directly. Please advise my private office is you do not receive a reply within 10 days.
