As the busy Summer season approaches the Dublin Airport Authority (DAA) will have Customer Service Agents(CSA's) managing the flow of traffic on the Departures Road from Monday 28th April, 2008.
The Departures Road, which is a high impact road, can have up to 1,000 vehicles per hour dropping passengers off during the peak busy hours early in the morning. The new CSA's will be positioned at each side of the pedestrian walk-way to improve the efficient flow of traffic there for all airport users.
Passengers are reminded that the Departures Road is strictly for set down only. Also with effect from Monday 28th April unattended cars will be towed away without delay to an on-campus location at a cost of €140. Towed cars will also be required to pay a clamping fee in addition to the daily parking rate.
Commenting on the introduction of the traffic management CSA's a DAA spokesperson said "The Departures Road can become extremely congested particularly during the busier peak periods and the new CSA's will help to ease that congestion by keeping the traffic flowing.
To help reduce the volume of cars on the Departures Road customers picking passengers up are urged to do so in the short-term car park where a special rate of €1.50 applies for under 30 minutes" the spokesperson added.
The new traffic management CSA's will also be positioned at the rear of the Car Park Atrium to manage traffic flows there.
