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

Deputy Michael Cahill’s excuse for driving 190km/ph… He was late to a function he had organised We wonder if he’d accept that excuse if someone appeared at the Justice Committee with it 2 year ban isn’t enough for that type of reckless disregard for public safety

“Entitled” is the right word… but we’d use it differently to describe the Judge The real nightmare would be the traffic if the tens of thousands of cyclists in Dublin every day all decided tomorrow to hop in the car www.carlow-nationalist.ie/news/nationa...

Even we’re now starting to lose track of the amount of rollbacks of basic road safety commitments from this Government No safe road speeds No restructuring of the RSA No automatic camera enforcement Oh and we’ve just had the worst year for road deaths in a decade

Annnddd… there it is TII will be buying the 12 properties in Dartmouth Square The homes sell anywhere from €1.35 - €2+ million without the incentive of a JR In the end it was about money… nobody was surprised

MetroLink Judicial review has been withdrawn While this is welcome news… The Dartmouth 19 have almost certainly been successful in whatever their demand was The JR system has to change, plans like this cannot be held to ransom

Dublin is now the 11th most congested city in the world & 3rd in Europe Governments answer: End 2:1 spending ratio to roads Delay public transport projects Seemingly cancel parts of the Rail Review Cancel RSA repurposing so it’s actually effective www.irishtimes.com/ireland/dubl...

Apparently the benevolent Don O’Neill; MD of Manhattan Peanuts said they’ve taken the JR to save the “cost to the taxpayer” Despite the fact that if they’re successful the plans will be scrapped costing us millions Feel free to email them your thoughts www.manhattan.ie/contact-us-s...

Manhattan Peanuts Ltd have taken a judicial review against the Luas Finglas project This is an important time of year for crisp companies… lots of hungry people in pubs Remind them with your wallets that they shouldn’t hold up essential public infrastructure

“Farcical” is the only word that can be used for this Government’s decision to rollback the “binding” decision to disband the RSA Maximum pressure needs to be placed on them to deliver safe roads in the midst of rising road deaths www.thejournal.ie/rsa-disbande...

Another day, another rollback of Government commitments After all our campaigning for an organization focused on road safety, They’ve decided to do nothing in the midst of rising road deaths What an absolute disgrace www.thejournal.ie/rsa-disbande...

Engineers, Government Backbenchers, Opposition TD’s, Advocacy Groups and the General Public have all been calling for restoration of the 2:1 spending and public transport delivery Yet the Ministers continue to focus on roads.. it’s ridiculous www.irishtimes.com/transport/20...

Contracts have been signed for the Ballymun/Finglas BusConnects corridor 🎉🥳

Green Line services have started to resume after two days of disruption, the chaos it caused on the roads shows just how important the Luas is to Dublin Commuters Imagine how much better Dublin traffic would be if Government actually delivered Luas Finglas/Lucan/Poolbeg & Bray

Another Judicial Review ends before getting to the courts with a closed door “mediation agreement” e.g. a payoff All the while the people of Dublin needlessly sit in congested traffic Government needs to act now!! www.irishtimes.com/business/202...

“Damages” ~ noun Also known as a “payoff” or “bribe” Description: A large amount of tax money Government are forced to give selfish NIMBYs who can afford to weaponise the legal system and delay essential transport infrastructure for hundreds of thousands of people

Mediation on Dec 22nd High Court Date: March 18th Gives the Dartmouth 20 three months to squeeze TII while Dublin waits for essential transport infrastructure Keep an eye out for settlement reports (e.g. payoffs) around Paddy’s day

When DublinCommuters confronted Junior Transport Minister Sean Canney’s office with evidence that the delay to the implementation of a 30kmh speed limit would cause preventable deaths, the response from one of his staff was chilling: “That is regrettable.” www.independent.ie/life/red-lig...

The NDP Transport report published earlier this week stated we won’t even meet 50% of the sectoral emissions reductions Yet shovel ready transport projects have been needlessly pushed out by years www.thejournal.ie/dart-south-w...

Luas Red Line services will be fully re-opened from tomorrow as they’ve finished the repairs to George’s Dock bridge following the fire www.rte.ie/news/dublin/...

We have spoken to McCabes Pharmacy who have clarified Sharon is no longer the CEO since February of this year The article we shared from the Business Post has since been updated with the correct information

The NDP review has been released and it’s not good news NO funding for Luas Lucan, Poolbeg or Bray before 2030 No inflation matching for Active Travel No funding for Dart+ South West AND they admit we wont even meet half the emissions targets for Transport reduction

Bridge testing at George’s Dock is to begin next week with the aim to re-open red line Luas services to the Point by the end of the month www.thejournal.ie/luas-red-lin...

Decades of underinvestment in public transport amidst the ongoing housing crisis have led to this Government inaction & in some cases direct obstruction means commuters will continue to suffer behind the wheel, when they could be moving on a train or bus

🪧 Climate Demonstration today at 1pm 🪧 Make your voice heard for sustainable infrastructure

It’s likely going to be March 2027 before 30kph is rolled out across Urban Areas within Dublin City Council Minister Canney could implement it at the stroke of a pen if he wanted by setting the default speed limit from 50kph to 30kph

Please join the National Climate Demonstration this Saturday at 1pm We only get big investment in sustainable infrastructure when we demand it from our public representatives

Judicial Reviews have been adding years on to public transport infrastructure projects which often end up in pay-offs All while construction costs skyrocket and services buckle under pressure This needs to happen very quickly!! m.independent.ie/irish-news/o...

It’s another exciting day as Luas Finglas has just been granted planning permission 🎉🥳🎊 The conditions also require stronger consideration for protected junctions and safer cycling along the entire route as well Another huge step for Dublin’s public transport network

I'm so fucking sick of the constant delays that are announced without apology like they'll be 5 minutes late for pints. Constant delays without a single person being held responsible just new timeline and back to BAU @dublincommuters.bsky.social #IrishPolitics www.irishtimes.com/transport/20...

The new battery operated trains will be delayed by almost a year, pushing it out until 2027 Capacity is an ongoing issue on Dart / Commuter rail services, so this is a big problem www.irishtimes.com/transport/20...

#BusConnects Phase 7 has finally arrived!! Here are the new routes, frequencies & maps for anyone on the new buses Please let us know if you’re experiencing any delays/ghost buses/route oversights and we’ll raise them with TII & NTA Phase 8 is to be the D-spine & O Oribital

Buried at the back of an article - current Director of the Irish Car Park Association; David Cullen admits they were wrong about the #TransportPlan “We’ve been embarrassed to say we got it wrong… some of our car parks are busier than ever”

Somebody might want to tell the Assistant Secretary at the Dept of Transport, that Primary Legislation was passed last year Minister for State Sean Canney can make 30kph the Default today if he wanted… www.irishtimes.com/transport/20...

Ah yes because the *checks notes* Irish Fiscal Advisory Council and Climate Change Advisory Council…. are famous for jotting numbers on the “back of an envelope” 🙄 www.irishtimes.com/your-money/2...

Rules for thee, but not for me Apparently Councillors should be able to park where they want, when they want, for as long as they want… provided they’re on “official business” according to Naas Mayor; Cllr Seamie Moore #HowIrelandWorks www.kfmradio.com/news/localne...
