Sean Canney is the Minister of State with responsibility for Road Safety… Apparently we shouldn’t expect the RSA to bring down the number of road deaths… He decided not to reform the agency & he decided not to implement #Love30 It’s on his shoulders! www.irishtimes.com/politics/202...

If you’re heading to Flavours of Fingal this weekend, they’re not running their normal shuttle buses… which is ironic given the dedicated section of their website about sustainability 🙄 No shuttle bus & €40 to park a car for the day 🤷‍♀️ www.flavoursoffingal.ie/about-flavou...

Another day - another Government TD announcing a Transport project which has no funding, nor is there any commitment in the NDP Luas Bray “COULD” begin next year…. In the same way Ireland “COULD” meet its emissions reduction targets…. But it won’t dublingazette.com/dublinlocalm...

Meanwhile multiple phases of BusConnects, all four Luas extensions and various Dart+ projects go unfunded 🙄 Always money for cars and roads… never any for solutions to Irelands congestion problems

Dublin's transport network is at breaking point, yet the Minister continues to announce & re-announce commitments for projects he hasn't funded We need transparency & clarity on the future of Dublin's Transport, and we need it now! www.dublincommuters.ie/post/dublin-...

That’s the 2nd Fianna Fáil TD that has had to step down from the Chairperson position of an Oireachtas committee this year for reckless decision making behind the wheel of a vehicle Transport Minister Daragh O’Brien needs to speak to his FF colleagues about example setting

€8,500 worth of grants & trade-ins available for electric cars… and still no sign of a bike scheme for people in non-typical employment or to trade a car in for a cargo-bike Show us your budget, and we’ll show you your priorities 🙄 www.thejournal.ie/drivers-to-b...

The recent College Green consultation report has come in and it had 81% public support which is great to see for the preliminary design stage Next Steps: Detail Design is refining the project and a full planning application will go to an Coimisiún Pleanála during the Summer

Massive delays on the DART due to a crash at Serpentine Ave. There was a plan to remove these level crossings and to build a network that doesn't just break due to external actors. The government never funded. Think about that as you stand in a roasting carraige going nowhere.

Diesel has been leaking in to the Liffey from Irish Rail’s depot’s for FIFTEEN MONTHS and it still hasn’t been resolved Absolutely outrageous that this is allowed to persist into our waterways from our public transport operators www.thejournal.ie/diesel-leak-...

Dublin Bikes was setup as an advertising contract & JCDecaux own all the infrastructure When the contract ends, everything gets removed (it’s old anyway & unlikely to be compatible with new offerings) DCC intend to own the next scheme themselves www.irishtimes.com/ireland/dubl...

FF Finance Minister meets FF Transport Minister to discuss delivery of Dart+ South West, a project neither of them have funded as the respective Government Ministers’ 🙄 *Spoilers* It’s not “on track” because there’s no money for the tracks!! www.leinsterleader.ie/news/kildare...

Dublin Bus has a book club for anyone looking for recommendations and already at the end of the #Booktok list Book club members even get a 10% discount in Chapters www.independent.ie/irish-news/i...

“If all of that money was put into light rail, you could have maybe six Luas lines in Dublin for the same price.” This is the same Michael McDowell who was famously one of the main objectors to the Luas; saying it was an ‘expensive toy train set’ 🙄 m.independent.ie/irish-news/m...

You solve congestion on the M50 by delivering quality public & active transport infrastructure Please take the time to respond to Brian’s Survey below

This is obviously worst case scenario planning… but it’s really exposing just how bad Dublin gets hit by volatile fossil fuel prices Government didn’t fund BusConnects expansions in 2026 & haven’t funded 3 of the Dublin Luas projects… 🤷🤷‍♀️ m.independent.ie/irish-news/w...

JR’s have been cleared for Finglas Luas, there are lots of questions remaining since the lands now won’t be purchased for the project Also, Government still haven’t funded construction until at least 2029 so it won’t be happening anytime soon www.irishtimes.com/crime-law/co...

Day 4 of the fuel protests * O’Connell St is still blocked * Green line still not running cross city * Bus diversion info on the Operators websites * Big blockade on the M50 Northbound at J3 Lots of bike share schemes in the City & Suburbs for those who want to cycle

Day 3 of the fuel protests and the massive disruptions continue. Government have announced that the defense forces will be deployed to start removing vehicles this morning We recommend the Transit App for realtime tracking, please share your bus location & help people get around

Fuels counter-protest this evening! ⏰ 5.10pm 📍 Garden of Remembrance 🚲 Cycle to Dáil End fossil fuel dependence 🌏

Massive disruptions continue today due to the fuel protests in the City Centre causing lots of diversions & delays to buses & trams Green Line Luas isn’t operating between St Stephen’s Green & Dominick stops www.thejournal.ie/bus-luas-tra...

We spoke to @news.Rte.ie Morning Ireland earlier about the departure of Sean Sweeney & the impact to MetroLink’s delivery timeline

Mostly it’s because consecutive Governments haven’t prioritised, nor funded public Transport properly It’s 20 years since the Green & Red line Luas launched… there’s a million more cars on Irish roads in that time They’re still underfunding it as well www.rte.ie/news/analysi...

Another Airport bus gets withdrawn from service because of corporate profit margins Meanwhile, the M50 is still at capacity and Government are removing the airport cap

Government must prioritise sustainable transport in any emergency relief funding The solution to the rising cost of oil will never be tax reduction. It’s better cycling infrastructure, more frequent & reliable public transport and Work from Home measures

Plans have finally been released for the Train Depot that was removed from the Dart+ West project as part of the planning permission It will include an upgrade to Kilcock Station with Twin Tracking to facilitate train stabling Consultation is now open www.dartplus.ie/en-ie/projec...

*UPDATE* The screws have now been removed by a local resident The Council did respond immediately but the Community had already taken care of it by the time they got there

Cyclists Beware!!! There are reports of sabotage in the cycle lane on the Old Cabra Road inbound near the Maple Centre Someone has drilled Torx screws into the cycle track and it’s damaging tyre’s Be careful if you’re cycling in the area

Everything you ever wanted to know about MetroLink from @TheB1m Excellent overview of the history, politics, & construction plans for Dublin’s most anticipated Transport project youtu.be/T_Jz9xzOoO4?...

Cycling numbers in Dublin up 50% 78% of people support #Love30 being rolled out and the Minister continues to do nothing Yet Darragh O’Brien is still looking for the magic pill to solve congestion…

If Minister Darragh O’Brien is looking for ideas to solve Dublin’s Congestion problems… we produced a document 18 months ago that’s a road map for doing exactly that!! www.dublincommuters.ie/post/a-commu...

Transdev’s contract as operator of the Luas will not be renewed A joint venture between Keolis & Amey is expected to take over Keolis reached out to us as part of their bid and seemed to prioritise customer experience www.irishtimes.com/business/202...

We spoke to Newstalk’s The Hard Shoulder about the latest saga with mandatory Hi-Vis jackets Lights are already required for night-time cycling, mandating hi-vis for everyone won’t fix non-compliance by the few Enforcement is the answer link.goloudplayer.com/s/sG01BRFZ38Yr

🪧Protest in Cabra this Saturday for Safer Streets Don’t let Dublin City Council ignore the Communities voice - Planning Laws are there for a reason 🗓️: Saturday 21st Feb ⏰: 11:00-12:00 📍: Outside the Go Petrol Station, Old Cabra Road

A decades worth of disruption is on the way which will exasperate the ongoing congestion issues. The passenger cap removal won’t help either This is what happens when you continuously delay vital public transport projects www.dublininquirer.com/dublin-city-...

The College Green plans have been released by Dublin City Council and another Consultation opens today Really great to finally see what this transformation will look like www.dublincity.ie/grow-college...

Yesterday we spoke to the Oireachtas Committee on Transport & we highlighted the various failings of this Government on road safety The ongoing failure of Vision Zero The Systemic failure of the RSA And the impact of Default 30kph U-Turn

We will be appearing in front of the Oireachtas Joint Committee on Transport to speak about Road Safety this morning from 09:45 today Highlighting the impact that continuous roll-backs of safety measures by Government Ministers is having on our roads www.oireachtas.ie/public/_reso...

We’ve been campaigning for more secure bike storage in Dublin and the suburbs for years, so it’s great to finally see a trial First ones will be on Capel St. & Grafton St. and will be ready for secure bike parking in the Spring

If they’re talking about illegal eScooters & Bikes, there are laws that simply need to be enforced If they’re talking about requiring helmets & hi-vis jackets for bikes & legal eScooters…. It will be vehemently opposed by us, campaigners & bike share companies

We fixed your headline for you RTE The driver killed the woman with his vehicle… please speak to your editors www.rte.ie/news/regiona...

Ourselves, @dublincommuters.bsky.social, @galwaycommuters.bsky.social, & Cork Commuter Coalition wrote to Iarnród Éireann & the NTA today, asking them to cease posting real-time service updates exclusively on X. This vital info should be widely available. Read below: docs.google.com/document/d/1...

Dublin Bus are offering €15,000 for innovative ideas on how to improve their services www.dublinbus.ie/press-releas...

Nobody expects transport infrastructure to happen overnight but they do expect it to happen. People want to use public transport, they want to see the delivery of infrastructure and of quality service. Stagnating projects and empty promises are not good enough.

Every now and again this gets recommended by an elected official, it’s obviously quite silly when you dig into it Private motorists don’t need more space when traffic is light, & when there is congestion buses need the priority

We spoke to Newstalk earlier about the soft-delay announcement to Next Generation Ticketing, now not making an appearance until 2028 www.newstalk.com/podcasts/hig...

While Government have been celebrating the €360m annual active travel budget and the opening of an office… the reality for Dubliners is 3/4 Councils have had their budgets cut And that doesn’t account for inflation Only the Ministers area of Fingal has had an increase 🤔

It seems Deputy Cahill didn’t learn his lesson about the consequences of his recklessly dangerous driving in the 90’s We expect a comment by @fiannafailparty.bsky.social or @darraghobrientd.bsky.social about their colleagues continuing poor decision making
