A stronger Garda presence and extra CCTV monitoring are needed at Luas stops throughout the capital, according to a Fine Gael TD.
Minister for Special Education and Inclusion Josepha Madigan is calling for a stronger garda presence following a number of violent public order incidents and "frequent anti-social behaviour" at and around Luas stops in Dublin. Minister Madigan referenced a "very violent fight" that occurred last week at Balally Luas stop in Dundrum.
The Dublin Rathdown TD said: “This kind of appalling violence, which took place in the open with other passengers and children around, cannot be tolerated. Many constituents have also raised with me what they see as increasing anti-social behaviour at Luas stops throughout the city.
