Congestion charges are a ridiculous idea so long as there are no reasonable or viable alternatives to car usage.
Public transport in pretty much all of Ireland, including Dublin, is absolutely fucking dogshit so all you’re doing with congestion charges is making things more difficult for people who don’t have other options.
If we had a good public transport system I’d be all for it, but we don’t, so I’m not.

Good. A far better approach is to remove them entirely from, say, 20%, of city centre streets, then gradually increase that percentage until it’s, say, 80%.

There are more cars on the road than ever before. We are doing nothing to entice people onto public transport.
I recently changed my working hours and the commute at 4pm-6pm feels like the hunger games. Cancelled and crammed buses aswell as trains. Government actively shelving public transport projects.

Our lazy government should be looking at the ATM trams used in san Francisco and Milan. Fantastic system that criss crosses both cities. This system would be far cheaper then a luas to install and could be used to link busses, trains and the luas.
The ATMs could run down narrow streets right through the city center linking all areas at a fast pace.
