Council replaced part of Dublin’s best cycle route with “anti-cycling death trap”, claims councillor Dublin City Council's inability to follow a planning condition set by An Bord Pleanála for flood works in Clontarf to provide a "pedestrian and cycle diversion route" had led a councillor to claim the council is treating cycling "like a child’s toy" and is "gaslighting" councillors by saying "cycling provison" has been made at the works. The work, which has been ongoing since May, has resulted in a large gap in Dublin City's longest cycle route, the northern section of the S2S Dublin Bay route, which also connects to the Clontarf to City Centre route. https://irishcycle.com/2025/08/09/council-replaced-part-of-dublins-best-cycle-route-with-anti-cycling-death-trap-claims-councillor/?utm_source=bluesky&utm_medium=jetpack_social
