We’ll be inviting all TDs and Senators to meet our supporters. We’ll also be inviting the media to witness and report on the issue. Please come along if you can.

In 2023, experts unequivocally recommended reduction of urban default speed limits from the present 50km/h to a new safer 30km/h. But the Department of Transport is now reneging on that, leaving it up to individual Local Authorities to apply 30km/h only on selected streets.

Join us with Love 30 at the Dáil to defend 30km/h speed limits! ⭕️ Stop the U-turn on safer speeds 📍 Outside Dáil, Kildare Street D2 📆 2 October ⏰ 10.30am - 11.30am 30km/h limits SAVE LIVES. We need to stop this U-turn and YOU can help on Oct 2. www.love30.ie/saving-lives...

This is really serious folks - government needs to wake up and do the right thing to protect vulnerable road users, just like they promised us.

📢 PROTEST! I BIKE Dublin will be joining #Love30 and about a dozen other advocacy groups at the Dáil on the 2nd October to protest the government's broken promise on a default 30km urban speed limit Come and join us! www.love30.ie/saving-lives...

This is appalling from the Irish Times. Anyone who walks or cycles around Dublin city regularly will be only too acutely aware of the risk from drivers accelerating through amber and red lights. This is not an issue to be joked about.

The 27 year old woman who was killed in Cork yesterday was cycling on a 50kph street in an urban area. The default 30kph limit promised by the govt may not have saved her life but it will save lives in the future. We can't allow them to renege on that promise. www.irishexaminer.com/news/munster...

Irish media reporting on road collisions too often dehumanises victims and hides driver responsibility. Cyclists and pedestrians are people first — the language we use matters. Read our full statement below.

Everyone is a loser, the unfortunate families who lose loved ones most of all. Then there are all those who lose the chance of a healthier lifestyle because of fear of road violence. And then there are those who if active travel worked safely and well could expect to enjoy clearer air and streets.

"A decade of lost opportunity to set 30km/h as a default and, of course, many lost and wrecked lives in that time" - road safety campaigner, Rod King of @20splenty.bsky.social reflecting on the presentation he gave to the Irish Road Safety Authority in 2015. vimeo.com/127717745

A bike stand on Camden Street has been vandalised. Please be vigilant when locking your bike to make sure it is secure.

Finally, last city stretch of the Royal Canal cycle lane is open! #cyclingdublin #royalcanal #aboutbleedintime

"We can only fix the problems if we know what the problems are, where they are and the extent of them" Minister Canney should not be "asking" the RSA to release data on collisions, he should be instructing them to do so. Lives are being lost because of their incompetence.

“an absolute sham of an organisation” We have to agree with @janetphorner.bsky.social's assessment of the Road Safety Authority. This has gone on far too long. www.thejournal.ie/city-and-cou...

It's not credible for the Dept of Transport to say there has been no softening of the Government’s Road Safety Strategy. The abandonment of the 30km/h limit will make it much more difficult to make the roads in our towns and cities safe for people walking and cycling. irishcycle.com/2025/09/02/u...

T minus 3 hours and it looks like it's going to be a fine evening. Hope you can join us!

Celebrate my birthday eve with me at bike bop and then head to @dublinmaker.bsky.social on Saturday and Sunday 😎🎉

A great way to party as you explore #Dublin from a different angle If you’re visiting - grab a bikeshare and join us, you’ll love it @bleeperactive.bsky.social #Moby #DublinBikes

It’s time to dust off the speakers. Will you join us for #IBIKEBop / #CriticalMassDub ? 📆 Friday, 29 August, ‘25 ⏰ Starting 6pm 📍Leaving from Parnell Sq. N, D1 ❓1hr city centre cycle with good company & tunes. Spread the word!

The Department of Transport is failing to implement the legislation that was passed only last year to introduce a default 30km/h speed limit. Their excuse, that it is hard to define an urban road, is laughable. RTE news : Call for 30km/h speed limit in urban areas www.rte.ie/news/ireland...

This report on garda inaction on road traffic offences is shocking but sadly, not surprising. The indifference shown by many in the force towards the enforcement of road traffic offences is a systemic problem and one we have been raising for many years. www.rte.ie/news/ireland... 1/n

Over one third of the people killed on Irish roads this year were walking or cycling. Reducing speed limits is a surefire way of making our roads safer. We are shocked that the government is reneging on its commitment which is why we co-signed this statement from @dublincommuters.bsky.social

It was great to catch up with Dom over the weekend. Dom joined us on his road bike for #IBIKEBop / #CriticalMass on Friday also. That gave him a taste for people friendly streets and areas of Dublin. We look forward to welcoming him back to Dublin before too long. #OiOi

"What we are witnessing right now is not a national road safety strategy in action. Instead, we see a distinct lack of courage, an abdication of responsibility disguised as consultation and local autonomy." - @ciarancannon.bsky.social, president of Cycling Ireland archive.fo/2025.07.21-0...

Political cowardice, pure and simple, and something that will cost lives.

Irish government suddenly having an epiphany on when local areas should have more power on key transport matters. Funny that 🙄

The National Road Safety Strategy has failed and the government is now rowing back on the very measures needed to stop the carnage on our roads. It is a complete dereliction of duty that will cost lives among the most vulnerable road users. m.independent.ie/irish-news/p...

Highlighting the poor quality of Dublin's cycle lanes - too narrow, not well protected, discontinuous, and poorly policed. It's a pity that the conclusion is "training and education" instead of better cycle lanes. archive.fo/2025.07.14-0...
