...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 council said: “The proposed Fitzwilliam Cycle Route scheme comprises of a 1km cycle route extending from Leeson Street to Mount Street Lower along Fitzwilliam Place, Fitzwilliam Street and Merrion Square East. The existing road layout will be reconfigured to provide a parking protected cycle lane on both sides of the road delivering a cycle route that caters for cyclists of all ages and abilities.”

It said that the scheme will include the reconfiguration of car parking spaces, provide increased cycle parking and deliver pedestrian improvements.

It said: “Dublin City Council would like to invite members of the public to attend a presentation on the detailed design of the scheme, which has been developed with consideration of the non-statutory public consultation submissions received, on Monday 25th February from 6.30pm to 8pm in the Wood Quay Venue, Civic Offices, Wood Quay, Dublin 8.”


...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.
