What a wildly stupid idea. Mandatory helmets and high viz is a proven remedy to reduce the number of people cycling. It effectively kills off things like Dublin Bikes. That's why no other EU country does anything like this. Pure madness.

15 yrs ago & it seems only yesterday that Conor Hickey was killed in Cabra. Two young boys from Gaelscoil Bharra were knocked down and killed in a 2 yr period on Faussagh & nothing has been done to make the road safer. The school, teachers, families & community are still paying the price. #SpeirGorm

The Bohemian Environmental Justice Film Festival (BEFF) is back this year and running this week from 5th-7th February! Visit beff.ie for the digital programme & tickets.

With more than 350 projects focused on converting asphalt into green and public spaces, the city is removing a lot of parking, even in the central Neuer Markt..... Now the square has been pedestrianized and filled with trees and seating for locals and visitors. p.dw.com/p/54lQE

The next screening of the excellent "The Tolka:This is your river" will be on 12 Feb in @tudublin.bsky.social at the Cabra Resilient event. Some tickets still availbale for this free event: www.eventbrite.com/e/resilient-...

Cabra is already choked with traffic, and this guy wants to make it worse at weekends. He’s clearly never tried to cross the road at Cabra Cross as a pedestrian. #SpeirGorm @connectingcabra.bsky.social
