Living Streets Dun Laoghaire

What a result! #LIVINGSTREETS passed by 30 to 7 THANK YOU to our campaigners, to the councillors who supported this, to the Council Executive. A new start for Dún Laoghaire & a symbolic project nationally! @dunlaoghairecra @DunLaoghaireTT @DunLaoghaireTn rte.ie/news/leinster/…

Great to see a cycle lane appearing on Mountown rd.

Cyclists & pedestrians who use Dun Laoghaire's Tivoli Road get saturated daily as well as dealing with safety scares. We're hanging in there as we wait for #LivingStreets to be implemented, trying to be patient! Would really appreciate if blocked drains could be cleared @dlrcc 🙏

Dubliners biking in their thousands, in all kinds of weather. The barrier to cycling has never been rain. It’s risk. Create safe streets and people will cycle. It worked then, it will work now.

Most broadcasters won’t say this: our roads are not fair, and they’re not neutral. Some people are far more vulnerable than others. Credit to Kieran Cuddihy for saying it on @rteliveline this week. Our laws, road design, and enforcement must reflect that simple truth.

More good stuff in the pipeline for Dun Laoghaire! Please complete this consultation for proposed @dlrcc Development at The Metals Green in Harbour between Irish Lights building & The Royal Irish Yacht Club. A new stop-off along coastal mobility route! 🙏dlrcoco.citizenspace.com/parks/themetal…

Happy New Year. Well done @dlrcc , world class fireworks.

Red light cameras - shelved. Reform of RSA - shelved. National default 30kmh speed limit in urban areas - shelved. And this is how we plan to reduce deaths and serious injuries on Irish roads?

@DubCityCouncil @LordMayorDublin Fantastic!

Christmas has come early for Dublin cyclists! The brand-new Dublin City Council BikeBunkers service was officially launched by Lord Mayor Councillor Ray McAdam @lordmayordublin in Stoneybatter. The first BikeBunker has been unveiled in Viking Place, and dozens more will be popping up across the city in the coming months like gifts under the tree! 🎁🚲 🎅🎄 Secure a safe, cozy parking space for the year at BikeBunkers.ie. @bleeperactive

Ireland is already one of Europe’s most car-dependent countries. Restore the 2:1 public transport funding ratio irishtimes.com/transport/2025…

Last chance! Generations to come NEED you! And if you could ask a few friends or neighbours to support this, that would be even better. Sad to say it, but there are people with time on their hands working hard to make sure that nothing changes.

Please take 2 min today (closes tomorrow) to support the fantastic Cabinteely Greenway by completing the public consultation below. A small group of vocal opposers (why?!) seem to have a lot of time on their hands, so it's critical we all support it. 🙏 dlrcoco.citizenspace.com/infrastructure…

We need safe infrastructure. Another pedestrian killed on our roads. irishtimes.com/ireland/2025/1… Please support the cabinteely greenway dlrcoco.citizenspace.com/infrastructure…

Works progressing on Cumberland Street. New seating and groundworks complete, planting should be coming soon.

In the Netherlands, where the Dutch invest in safe cycling, the over-65s cycle around a quarter of their journeys, while the over-80s cycle around 10% of theirs. Low Traffic Neighbourhoods and cycle lanes don't 'restrict freedom', they expand it.

Public Consultation for Cabinteely Greenway is open til 11 Dec. Please consider submitting & sharing with your network. It will create 2.3km largely off-road route through Cabinteely Park linked to dlr Active Travel network, enabling students, etc to cycle dlrcoco.citizenspace.com/infrastructure…

Please support your local Tidy Towns

Every weekend and every day across Christmas week — a little kids festive train will be running along a short section of the seafront. A lovely, cheerful addition to the season in Dún Laoghaire.

Great to see the Fun fair is down at Harbour Plaza for Christmas. I always love Dún Laoghaire this time of year.
