A CYCLE route in Co Clare has been listed as one of the top 10 in the world in a new guide which highlights the best trends, destinations, journeys and experiences for the upcoming year.

A ROAD safety and traffic management measure that would have meant hundreds of large lorries removed from Dublin city streets daily has been set aside because the city council has no budget for the plan.

The recent vote by the city council on November 2nd unfortunately decided to remove the College Green Bus Gate in the evenings.

Here's a list of the councilors and how they voted:

(Please please if you support the bus gate let your councilors know by emailing or calling them. You can find who your local councilliors HERE) 

DUBLIN CITY Council is coming under pressure from city-centre business interests to abandon the “bus gate” on College Green, despite a remarkable reduction in bus journey times and a huge increase in the number of cyclists. 

A CYCLIST is fighting for his life after being hit by a Dublin Bus wing mirror prompting claims that the company has continually been warned by drivers of their potential danger.

The victim, a cleaner at Beaumont Hospital believed to be a 37-year-old Polish man, was hit on his way home from work on the Artane Road earlier this month.

DUBLIN CITY Council is to increase the capacity of its Dublinbikes rental stations in the coming weeks because of the huge popularity of the scheme.

The council also has longer-term plans to introduce new station locations and increase the number of bikes available to users.
