1. Introduction
missions with the promotion of sustainable modes of transport. These developments have seen increased attention paid to travel mode alternatives to the private car; with public transport, walking and cycling receiving improved focus. In recent years the Irish Government has outlined its commitment to the promotion of sustainable transport modes such as cycling. In 2009, the Department of Transport (DoT) published Ireland’s first ‘National Cycle Policy Framework’ (NCPF) (DoT, 2009a). In the same year the DoT also published a document that outlines the national commitment to ‘Smarter travel’ (DoT, 2009b). The NCPF document outlines several policy positions on the provision of cycling in Ireland and goals for achieving an increase in the use of this mode (DoT, 2009a). Responses to the public consultation for the ‘Smarter travel’ document found that there was a need for investment in safe cycleways, secure bicycle parking and bicycle rental schemes. It was felt that such investments would support cycling. As well as these responses, support was expressed for encouraging cycling to school, provided children could do so safely. In 2008, the DoT launched a public consultation called ‘2020 Vision’ (DoT, 2008). The results of this consultation process were then taken on board in forming the policy for achieving more sustainable travel by 2020. This consultation identified the need to support “healthy” modes of travel, and the support of cycling policies was identified as one way in which this can be achieved. The ‘2020 Vision’ consultation document reports that the benefit/ cost ratio for a cycleway is 20:1 (DoT, 2008). The document acknowledges the benefits of developing the National Cycle Network (NCN) as a network which is a “well-signed cycle network with good connections between urban areas on trafficfree paths, quiet lanes, and traffic-calmed roads”. There is also encouragement for the development of school travel plans which incorporate cycling. Previous research on the NCN have shown the economic, tourism and health benefits of investing in these cycleways (Deenihan and Caulfield, 2015, 2014; Deenihan et al., 2013). The Irish government has proposed the development of a National Cycle Network. It was stipulated that the routes designed within the network should allow people to travel between “urban centres” around the country (NRA, 2011). With the requirements of “access for all” on the routes and that the routes would be attractive to those embarking on both long and short distances. It was decided that a subsequent action would be to select a “major route corridor” such as the Dublin to Galway leg, or the route for a subsection of this leg (NRA, 2011).
