Re: Re: Dublin Eastern Bypass feasibility report

Just to clarify…. when I talk about the “Anglo Saxon Highway Model” i refer to the model of wider prevailing transportation policy and investment – the balance between mass transit and provision for the private car, not merely the location and design of their highways which are very different. Ireland, the UK and the US are far more reliant on the car for daily commuting than those on the continent and we design urban areas around the car more than Europeans. Only now, in these islands, are we beginnning to look at concepts like the Home Zone for example….
