 | | Since the National Roads Authority is the body set up by legislation - the Roads Act 1993 - to "secure the provision of a safe and efficient network of national roads", it is reasonable to assume that the NRA would be the body to advise the government on what roads to build. |  | | Michael Egan of the National Roads Authority made the astonishing admission that the NRA did not advise the Cabinet Committee on Infrastructural Development to build motorways. |  | | Surprisingly there have been no resignations from the National Roads Authority in protest at the rejection of their study. |

 | | The National Roads Authority is empowered by the Local Government (Toll Roads) Act, 1979 to charge and collect tolls for the use of certain roads by vehicles. |  | | In addition, the National Roads Authority is required to produce a Draft Toll Scheme and citizens are invited to inspect the scheme for a period of one month and make observations/submissions on the scheme. |  | | Under the approach being pursued by the National Roads Authority, toll roads will be constructed as additions to the current network of national roads rather than provided by means of improvement of existing roads. |

| | Roads : Showdown on soaring costs : ThePost.ie |
 | | The 14-member board of the National Roads Authority is remarkable for its absence of direct transport, roads or engineering expertise. |  | | It devours the greatest amount of taxpayers' money after the health service, yet the National Roads Authority, which oversees the country's national roads network, is arguably the least accountable of any state-funded organisation. |  | | It is reluctant to discuss projected road costs or deal with the toll operator National Toll Roads, citing commercial sensitivities. |

| | Countrygoer Europe: The Bohemian Forest |
 | | The National Park Authority, concerned about environmental impact of traffic in their National Park - including the impact of exhaust emissions on the ecology of the area - has, over the last few years, pursued a policy of gradually restricting traffic, eliminating unsightly roadside parking and even closing some cul-de-sac forest roads to traffic. |  | | Many of the quiet lanes and forest roads have remained closed to traffic since the National Park was created in 1991, and there are over 135km of traffic free cycle trails as well as an extensive network of quiet roads. |  | | Close co-operation between the two National Parks is most graphically illustrated by the foot and cycle-only frontier crossing at Bucina (terminus of the Bavarian bike bus) where you can either cycle into the Czech Republic or walk 500 metres to catch the Šumava National Park bus to the mountain resort of Kvilda. |
