Statement From Andrew Hind, President, Irish Planning Institute, on the new DTA
Monday, April 14, 2008
“The Irish Planning Institute - which represents the country’s professional planners - broadly welcomes the setting up of the Dublin Transport Authority. This reflects many of the things we have been calling for in terms of integrated land use and transport planning.
However, we would like to see this idea extended beyond the Greater Dublin Area and into the gateway cities and hub towns as these areas are also in need of such an initiative.”
