Transport & Roads, Active Travel

● Cyclists are a danger to people walking in our parks but nothing has been done to protect people walking. Cyclists seem to be prioritised over every sector of society - leaving many feeling abandoned. It cannot be impossible to have a solution which accommodates everyone. Encouraging cycling has been spoken of for many years - where are our Planners in all of this, in finding a solution and incorporating it into future planning of roads, housing estates, ● We need safe, segregated cycling infrastructure to encourage children and students to cycle to school & college, for parents to cycle to shop and sports, for people of all ages and abilities to cycle safely and easily about their business. Many people cycle who cannot walk. Barriers, kissing gates, railings and obstacles on cycle paths, lack of dishing, and cars blocking paths and cycle lanes all discriminate against people with disabilities being able to cycle in our public spaces ● Cycling and cycle access in areas needs to be addressed e.g. Sandyford. ● Create cycling streets. Implement 'last mile' delivery options by cargo bikes.

Bus Routes Cross County

● If we had a more regular bus service from Dalkey to Dun Laoghaire, I'm sure more people would use it. ● Improvement of bus connections: there are great bus routes on each side of the county but it's difficult to go cross county using public transport - the only routes that do this cover very few communities ● Better bus links between Dalkey and Dun Laoghaire. The Dart is too far to walk from for many elderly people.

Transportation and Parking

● Good transport options and good infrastructure are needed so that we can have a mixed community where old and young are happy to live in ● Older people can have difficulty negotiating hills or longer walks so many have no option but to drive. Parking is becoming very difficult for them. ● Cycling ● Sustainable Transport (SDG 11.2) provide access to safe, affordable, accessible and sustainable transport systems for all, improving road safety, notably by expanding public transport, with special attention to the needs of those in vulnerable situations, women, children, persons with disabilities and older persons. ● Every school has a 'school street' designation, with motor traffic restricted, enabling children and families to socialise safely. ● Free parking needed. ● A community with good access and reasonably priced public transport with improved services to areas which do not have this at present.
