Introduction
Ireland’s transport sector will be adversely affected by the decision of the United Kingdom to leave the EU. The position papers published by the UK Government in August 2017 provide little solace for those in Ireland making their preparations for the departure of the UK from the EU.

While there are other areas of transport that will also be affected by Brexit, it will not be to the same extent as freight and aviation.1
