I am editor of IrishCycle.com and have reported on and commented on cycling in Ireland for over a decade. My background is in journalism -- I have a BA in Journalism from DCU and HDip in Print Journalism from BCFE. I wrote about cycling for national newspapers, and then started CyclingInDublin.com for overflow stories. Later the website was re-branded to reflect a more national focus.
Supprised at the lack of stations along the P2P route west of the docklands. Also the two stations on grand canal st. and mount st. are off the canal route.
And why not down Clanbrassil Street – heavy cycling street – and along the canal at Portobello too?
Because that area is part of a later phase of the overall plan, if it comes to fruition in it’s entirity.
Very disappointed that there is nothing in the entire north-east of the city. Especially along the S2S (Sutton to Sandycove) route. I was hoping that this expansion would breach the canals.
…Again, that’s part of a later phase. See map of future phases here;
