14. Traffic Management & Traffic Options

The main issue is the re prioritisation of traffic lights. Even with Covid changes, pedestrians are often brought to a traffic island and have to wait with heavy traffic racing past. The pedestrian crossing times are too rushed. As outlined elsewhere, crossing from North to South of the River Liffey can involve a crazy zig zag use of pedestrian crossings and sometimes no pedestrian light at all. Smart traffic light would also help, where the pedestrian has already crossed and and cars stop when there are no pedestrians. Traffic lights should have cctv to catch drivers/cyclists etc breaking red lights. Use of indicators is slipping and this law needs to be enforced.
