		Ireland is dependent on imported fuels for the major part of its energy supply but the policy has been to utilise native resources to the maximum in the generation of electricity.

	CIE Group - About Us - Schools and Enthusiasts
		The use of boats on rivers also dates from ancient times, though this form of transport was often hindered by the presence of mills with their weirs and demands for water.
		In 1945 the GSR and the Dublin United Transport Company (which operated the Dublin City buses and trams) were merged to form Coras Iompair Éireann (CIÉ) and in 1950 the Grand Canal Company was taken into CIÉ thereby giving the country the nationalised, multifaceted transport system it has today.
		His report, published before the end of the year, suggested that the use of large main line diesel locomotives in Ireland was unwarranted and that their introduction would not be the answer to CIÉ's problems.

	Transport guide for Ireland by Hostelbookers (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-22)
		Travel between major centres in the Republic is generally straightforward, with reliable – albeit infrequent and slow – public transport operated by the state-supported train and bus companies Iarnród Éireann (Irish Rail) and Bus Éireann.
		Transport in the North is similarly infrequent in rural areas.
		Ireland's relatively quiet rural roads make car rental an attractive and increasingly popular option, allowing you to visit the more remote areas of the country.

	Ireland - Transport - Trains
		Train travel is a good way to get around Ireland with an efficient network operated by Iarnród Éireann which connects most major towns and cities with intercity services.
		Train travel is the fastest way to get around Ireland though the network is routed through Dublin and there are few services that run north - south, and, while you can get a train to the West Coast, it is not possible to explore that area by train.
		If you intend to travel extensively by train there are a number of travel passes for trains and those that combine train and bus travel.

		Although the transport sector has traditionally prioritised policy goals relating to congestion, economic efficiency and infrastructure, sustainability is now an overriding priority.
		Quite apart from the environmental benefits there are huge cost pressures on Ireland's fleet managers in all sectors and on the road haulage industry in particular to find economic, efficient and sustainable fuel and technology solutions.
		Local authorities are critically aware of the recent demands a rapidly growing road transport sector imposes on the environment, town centre congestion, car-parking requirements etc. Combining their environmental and local infrastructure planning roles, many councils will be examining new fuel and technology options for their own vehicles.

		Northern Ireland's regional development minister, who is due to resign on Thursday, has announced a ten-year funding plan for transport.
		But Mr Robinson said he said he was "delighted" that the assembly had "unanimously noted with concern the poor state of the public transport system in Northern Ireland and proposed that the minister for regional development should urgently implement a comprehensive and integrated transport policy to redress this problem".
		Ensuring major developers help to meet the costs of the transport infrastructure needs created by their developments, introducing road user charges in congested areas, work place car parking levies, and perhaps tolls, should be considered, he said.
