The issue of hazards caused by electric scooters on footpaths and roads around the town was raised by Independent Dundalk councillor Maeve Yore at Wednesday’s public JPC meeting.
She told the meeting that legislation was needed and that the issue had been raised with Minister Eamon Ryan when he visited Louth County Council last week.
She asked if the gardai could implement targeted operations across Dundalk and the wider county to address the issue.
She said similar measures had been implemented in Drogheda to great success.
In response Supt Charlie Armstrong said that local gardai would try to organise an education programme on e-scooter safety as a first step before going straight to enforcement measures.
