You may have heard the unfortunate news that The Greenhouse on St. Andrews Street will no longer be available to us for meetings since the start of February.  We need to look for a new venue, and we'd like YOUR ideas.

Thanks to all who have helped so much with this campaign!  Heartening that the City Council and Minister for the Environment, Community and Local Government got together and extended the Cycling Officer's contract for six months.  We really hope that this gives time to find permanent funding for the Officer's salary, given the extraordinarily high ratio of benefit to cost that the promotion of cycling achieves.  Though it's the principle of having the Officer job in place, as set out by the National Cycle Policy Framework, we have to say that the current Officer, Dr. Ciaran Fallon, has been a really effective and capable voice for cycling in Dublin for the last 3 years, and we do hope he'll see fit to continue in the job!

The official shortlist is announced this Wednesday.

So, fingers crossed they think our video best conveys that we're better together when we want to improve Dublin city for everyone who would like to cycle :-)

Thanks to Tom Newton of Transport Users for coming to last night's meeting and sharing his thinking on public transport in Dublin.

The new Grand Canal cycle way has traffic signals specifically for cyclists. Fair play to the Council for innovating here.
