This standalone MMP report should be read wholly in conjunction with all other relevant documents submitted as part of this planning application. 1.2 Proposed Development Summary and Site Location As shown in Figure 1.1, the Trinity Hall site is located approx. 3.5km south of Dublin City Centre and the Trinity College Green campus. Figure 1.1 also illustrates the sites of other Trinity College campus locations and official student residences (accommodation). Although the primary purpose of the Trinity Hall redevelopment is 3rd level student accommodation during term times, the development will also be used in the summer for language schools and tourist accommodation with these summertime residents utilising the same sustainable transports options as 3rd level students.

This report outlines the following: ▪ Existing Initiatives and Travel Pattern Data ▪ Existing and Proposed Local Road Network, Facilities and Public Transport Services ▪ Objectives and Mode of Travel Targets ▪ Action Plan – appropriate measures to encourage a positive change in travel patterns ▪ Monitoring and Review process The overall objective of this MMP is compliment and align with the current Trinity College Smarter Travel Campus (STC) initiatives, measures and targets and to make a firm commitment to encourage and promote active and sustainable modes of transport such as walking, cycling and public transport as part of the proposed Trinity Hall redevelopment. These objectives should be achieved through the promotion and implementation of both ‘soft’ (promotion and operational initiatives) and ‘hard’ (infrastructural) measures where reasonable and monitor travel choice and other patterns over time for students and staff at Trinity Hall in conjunction with the overall Trinity College STC initiative and Health Trinity project. 1 NTA guidance: ‘Workplace Travel Plans - A Guide for Implementers’, ‘Achieving Effective Workplace Travel Plans Guidance for Local Authorities’, ‘The Route to Sustainable Commuting’ & ‘Advice Note on Mobility Management Plans’.

DESCRIPTORS Access to Education; *Adult Education; *Day Programs; Educational Research; Foreign Countries; Lifelong Learning; Noncredit Courses; *Nonformal Education; *Womens Education IDENTIFIERS *Ireland ABSTRACT A study examined daytime education groups, a major phenomenon in Irish adult education. Results showed that 96 groups were operating, mostly in suburban areas, particularly Dublin. These groups had 8,723 adults participating in their courses and programs. What made them unique was their voluntary, locally based nature. The groups received little or no recognition, encouragement, or support from the Department of Education. They were generally dependent on local level support. More than half operated from private homes. Two-thirds rented premises. One in three did not have any insurance coverage for their activities. Two-thirds provided child care, which approximately one-fifth of the participants used. The groups provided a large number and wide range of educational courses and programs. In contrast to statutory providers, the groups had greater control over the whole process. Although crafts and skill-based learning were still emphasized. the main type of learning was oriented toward social and personal understanding. Most courses were run on a strict self-financing basis.
