Achieving the Smarter Travel Mark demonstrates that Croke Park Stadium prioritises the importance and value of sustainable travel initiatives and the associated environmental benefits. We look forward to implementing further Smarter Travel initiatives to support our visitors in choosing environmentally friendly transport options.
