Major Decisions regarding car traffic in cities. Mr Ryan and his team are proposing to increase carparking charges in cities and other ideas whereby people are forced to use Buses. I hope he and the others take into account that families from rural areas like Monaghan have to go to places like Dublin to attend hospitals either for treatment or to visit loved ones in hospital. At the moment it is very difficult to pay the parking fees at current prices but what are rural patients to do? -- park outside the city and take the bus? That is not an option for someone attending for Chemo or the like or someone going for other types of treatment or a family going to collect a family member after hip replacement etc. Surely there will have to be alternatives for the rural person going to the city. That is where we have to go to get the major treatment. I hope our rural TDs refuse to accept the proposals as currently suggested.
