Active Travel, Transport, Infrastructure and Utilities

National and Regional Transport Policy seeks to support the transition to a low carbon society and emphasises the need to reduce the demand for travel and the reliance on the private car in  favour of public transport, car-pooling, cycling and walking. Travel trends for Adare identify a high dependency on car travel and the     village experiences frequent traffic  congestion.

The potential for growth in Adare will lead to additional    demands on roads, water supply and sewerage treatment, energy supplies and telecommunication networks. The     increased demand for services must be considered in the context of reducing carbon emissions and promoting a more sustainable way of living, travelling and working.
