Lunchtime cycle today to protest for 10% of transport budget

Cycling commuters and others who cycle are expected to stage a lunchtime cycle protest in Dublin today to look for safer conditions for cycling and at least 10% of the transport budget to go towards cycling.

The event, which is set to start at 1pm at Leeson Lane, is being organised by campaign groups Cyclist.ie and the Dublin Cycling Campaign.

...I'm sorry to disrupt you while you're reading this article, but without messages like this, IrishCycle.com's reader-funded journalism won't survive. With nearly 1/2 million views and 300k readers so-far this year, it's not just people who are dedicated to cycling that this website reaches. However, the number of subscribers is around 0.6% of readers. While having a large gap between readers/subscribers is standard for non-paywall reader-supported journalism, IrishCycle's journalism needs more support. Don't delay, support monthly or yearly today. Now, back to the article...

The event’s Facebook page currently shows 200 people going and another 400 interested.


...That's the end of the article. Keep scrolling if you want to the comments, but IrishCycle.com *NEEDS* readers like you to keep it that way. It only requires a small percentage of readers to give a bit each month or every year to keep IrishCycle.com's journalism open to all. Thank you.
