I can confirm that the small car-park serving the sites at Cahergal and Leacanabuaile Forts is under the care of the Office of Public Works. 

OPW is already aware of the bus and car-parking issues here and it is accepted that the area no longer serves the needs of people visiting these sites.  In the past, a number of possible re-configurations were considered for the area including the removal of the central flower bed.  However, it was felt that this would not bring any significant benefit as large coaches would then be able to park more easily thus reducing the space available for other vehicles.  There are no plans currently therefore to do any works at the site.
