How Cities Are Clamping Down on Traffic to Help Fight Emissions
Briefly

Emma Gray, co-founder of a busy Dublin cafe, highlights the extreme traffic congestion in the city, noting that it ranks as the second-worst globally, only behind London.
Multiple studies show that traffic jams in Dublin could cost the economy 1.5 billion euros by 2040, a significant increase from 336 million euros in 2022.
Dublin's transport strategy aims for a 40% reduction in overall traffic by 2028, aligning with global efforts to reduce emissions and encourage alternative transportation methods.
Cities worldwide, including Dublin, are promoting pedestrian and cyclist-friendly initiatives, joining the U.N. goal of achieving net-zero carbon emissions by 2050.
