Abstract

Leo Varadkar has said that there are no plans to introduce congestion charges for commuters. If introduced in the future, would they be an effective and fair way to manage traffic and emissions?

Dr. Muireann Lynch, Senior Research Officer on Energy Economics at ESRI and Dr. Lorraine D’Arcy, Senior Lecturer in Sustainable Transport and Mobility at Technical University Dublin joined The Last Word to discuss.
