Madam, - I have a simple solution to many of Dublin's traffic problems. Fill in the Liffey from the Point to Heuston and toll it; extend D'Olier Street straight through TCD with tolls; convert St Stephen's Green into a multi-storey car park to be financed by a private-public partnership; and create major park-and-ride facilities in Dún Laoghaire Harbour and at the Phoenix Park in conjunction with the local authorities and private developers. I'm sure that these long overdue, obvious developments would be welcomed by hard-pressed commuters and that the Government, aided by subservient agencies, will be able to push these measures through the democratic processes. - Yours, etc,
BRIAN FLANAGAN,
Blackrock,
Co Dublin.
