I have held a number of meetings with my EU and UK counterparts and the European Commissioner for Transport in relation to Brexit and the border since early 2017. These meetings were very useful in promoting an understanding of transport Brexit-related implications for Ireland, including the impacts of Brexit on the border areas and the details are summarised in the table.
