The Road Safety Authority thinks cycling is a pastime. This is dangerously incompetent. The Department of Transport is currently conducting a public consultation on the RSA itself which is highly unusual. I think we need an entirely new organisation. gov.ie/en/consultatio…
Disappointing to see @RSAIreland refer to cycling as a pastime...again. Not ignoring the fact that leisure/sport cyclers should be treated with respect & care on the road, it's vital that @RSAIreland start recognising cycling as a mode of transport & not just a hobby.
Work has started on Bachelor's Walk to widen the narrow footpath on the riverside and build a two-way segregated cycle path. Over the summer, a bus gate will be introduced here to speed up bus journeys.
"Walking and cycling ‘take 680,000 cars off road daily’ in Ireland’s five largest cities" Between 69% and 88% residents support building cycling infrastructure even if it means less room for other traffic.
A survey of people in five Irish cities has found most would like to walk, wheel or cycle more and most want the Government to shift investment away from road building schemes and towards active travel infrastructure or public transport rte.ie/news/2024/0305…
“Walking, Wheeling and Cycling takes 530,000 cars off the road every day in the Dublin Metropolitan Area” To objectors of active travel measures - which will hold you up more in traffic? A bike lane OR half a million extra cars on the road??? nationaltransport.ie/planning-and-i…
Hi, Emergency doc here. Can confirm I have treated precisely 0 people injured by cyclists this year. This stands in stark contrast to the several serious injuries and deaths, tragically including children, I have seen caused by motorists. You have to do better @GardaTraffic

Last September I wrote to @DubCityCouncil asking that they take enforcement action to ensure the new arcade that is part of Motel One on Liffey Street Upper remains publicly accessible. Today I sent them a reminder, it is wrong to close of such spaces from the public.
A big part of making Dublin's buses work: get the traffic on the quays out of its way. I spoke in support of the new traffic plan in the council last night. @CEO_DublinBus' call couldn't be clearer, so I quoted it heavily.
Tell me again... why anyone should be listening to @Diageo_News/@GuinnessIreland about their concerns for traffic management in Dublin City Centre? Presumbly they'll just continue to break traffic laws when they change anyway...

Our cities do not need newer cars. Stop with the shiny gadgets that nobody wants. Start to optimize what already works well! 🚆🚲🧑🦽🚶♀️🤸🌳
Dublin's core city centre has been snarled up in traffic for as long as I can remember. The city council finally have a real plan to end that, and I'm backing it 100%.
Yes 😍😍
Overwhelming support for a safer, healthier, cleaner and greener Dublin city centre 🥳 This would transform Dublin. Let's do this! irishtimes.com/ireland/dublin…
Dublin in 1984. The city centre had depopulated, containerisation had hollowed out the industrial core and much of the retail and industrial buildings had been simply demolished. Many smaller North American cities still look like this.

“It’s a matter of enormous hope to see first signs of this annihilation of Ireland’s traditional environment begin to wane” Strong stuff from @ManchanMagan in the @IrishTimesMag today.

Look at Ireland… It’s embarrassing. Most of the little green dots on this map aren’t even real forests, but rather spruce plantations. We urgently need to restore nature in Ireland! @IrishRainforest @NativeWoodTrust @whittledaway @rayofoghlu @hometree__

Before and after on Deansgrange Road. ❤️ Thank you @dlrcc #bikedeansgrange
It's great to see different people sharing images and videos of the Deansgrange cycle route It's worth saying while we should strive for the best designs and processes, each delay is a delay to streets which are safer, offer more mobility options and are more sustainable.

This has certainly brightened up my day! The hand holding, dog in the back, cycling despite the rain! Amazing
My Dublin commute: 🚲 15 min bike ride. 🚦 6 proper junctions. On average, I’d see 1-2 motorists break red lights per junction. Never mind the awful amount of 🟠 = 🟢 … Gives you an idea of the problem…
So unique to Ireland it's in London

An attempt to halt the implementation of the Dublin City Centre Transport Plan, which aims to reduce the dominance of cars on the city’s streets, has been defeated by councillors. irishtimes.com/ireland/dublin…
It deserves another meme because it's so true
I'd almost go so far as to say there's absolutely nothing patriotic about them in the slightest
Hey @AmazonHelp when two of your drivers arrange to meet up and swap over parcels, could you get them to do this somewhere with safe, legal parking, and not on the footpaths and cycle lanes of Dublin? And no, I don't want to jump through humps to get no effective response again
Bollard Glow Up. No point in making them shy and retiring as drivers will still crash into them

A car parks illegally so often on this specific spot taking up the entire footpath that the footpath colour is permanently a different colour to all other footpaths on the street. It also regularly drives the wrong way down a one way road to park in this spot.
The SocDems entered the last election cycle with possibly the best cycling policy doc of any party. They’re ending it with a number of cllrs undermining projects and their cycling policy removed from their site. I hope the sensible members right the ship before #LE2024
