Liffey Cycle Route could be trialed this summer

A cycle route along Dublin’s quays — called the Liffey Cycle Route — could be trialed this summer. A report is set to be presented to the next monthly council meeting in March.

Tonight, Cllr Gary Gannon tweeted: “Some interesting news from tonight’s [monthly council] meeting. @DubCityCouncil will bring a report to next months council meeting for a trial of the Liffey Cycle Route that would take place throughout the Summer. Some interesting decisions ahead for councillors.”

...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...

Cllr Marie Sherlock tweeted: “Lots of frustration expressed tonight at delay in #LiffeyCycleRoute and lots of support for trial at city council monthly meeting. Commitment to bring proposals of a trial to the March council meeting.”

Over 4,280 people have now signed the LiffeyCycle.com petition which seeks for the route to be trialed. It is supported by I Bike Dublin, the Dublin Cycling Campaign, Cyclist.ie, Dublin Commuter Coalition, and this website, IrishCycle.com.

More information on the trial as we get it.


...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.
