>The transport plan is aiming to reduce traffic jams by restricting private vehicle access on certain roads and changing some routes in the hope of freeing up more space for public transport, walking and cycling and discouraging private vehicles from using the city centre as a through-route.
Seems perfectly simple: the city centre should be pedestrians, bikes, buses, trams and taxis. Doesn’t make sense to have private cars in there.
Incidentally, anyone who tries to take their car to the city centre these days must be mad. Expect to sit in your car for hours

Love how you cant drive straight to Eden quay from bachelors walk .. but you can go onto Eden quay from O’Connell bridge turning right .
Then. You can’t go straight across o connell bridge to head out bound on the quays but you can turn left off Westmoreland Street 🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣

>The straight ahead movement from Burgh Quay to Aston Quay will be open for public transport, taxis and cyclists only.
All vehicles can still turn left from Burgh Quay to D’Olier Street.
The left turn from Westmoreland Street to Aston Quay will be for public transport, taxis and cyclists only.
So how do you get from the Port / George’s Quay to Wood Quay? Hopefully, the Greens will be gone soon – they’re good in theory only.

Just in time for the schools opening.

The state actively discourages people from living in the city centers, they then actively discourage people from visiting the city centers.
We already have USA like urban sprawls with large shopping centers on the outskirts.
This will continue to get worse.

Without giving alternatives – dropping the price of the port tunnel, scrapping the toll at the east link (like was agreed at it’s inception) the Maynooth train line running from Pearse (south side) all day. Extra capacity on the Luas during peak times so you can actually get on one at Heuston . . . Without the alternatives it’s a bollocks move quite frankly, nobody’s transversing Dublin city by car for the laugh – they’re going to work.

Anything which makes it harder for a person to drive their car in the city centre, I’m all for it.
