In addition this, the Council is rolling out cycle parking at high demand locations around the County and is continuing to support the provision of cycle training to 5th and 6th classes in schools as part of the Department of Transport Cycle Right programme (www.cycleright.ie).
An Cathaoirleach Cllr Una Power stated,
I welcome this initiative from the Council to supply cycle and scooter parking to schools and I hope this will encourage more children, to cycle to school. I also welcome the recent allocation of €34million of funding from the National Transport Authority for the devotement of Active Travel Schemes and the enhancement of cycle infrastructure.
Dún Laoghaire–Rathdown County Council actively promotes cycling as a safe, healthy, and environmental friendly travel mode and is currently developing a significant number of cycling infrastructure schemes in the County as part of the National Transport Authority Sustainable Transport Measures Grants (STMG) Programme 2021.
