If you're delivering into the city, if you're working in the city and need to bring tools, if you need to drive in for some other reason... you still can. If you want to take a *shortcut through* the city centre... you'll have problems.

@ray_cun Not a single human being on this earth was using bachelors walk or the route between pearse st and tara street as any kind of ‘shortcut’ , the eastlink was the only ‘shortcut’ in that part of town. That should be made free to assist

@2Otoole4School There was a traffic analysis carried out by Dublin City Council which found that a lot of city centre traffic did not have a city centre destination.

@gracemarylaura As I said, if you need to drive into the city, you still can. The plan is to reduce *through* traffic.

@ray_cun Should an environmentally friendly policy not try to limit driving to the shortest most direct route? I'm all for pedestrianising parts of the city, and having civic spaces that ye all only talk about, but this seems like purposely frustrating drivers making legitimate journeys.

@MurphPsych If you make driving the most convenient option, you encourage more driving.

@ray_cun So you are fine with people making a much longer car journey to leave one’s home on Clontarf or Drumcondra to visit a relative in Rathmines or Ranelagh?

@ray_cun Based on the many comments, it's evident people can't do some basic reading.

@ray_cun Hi Ray, your “shortcut through” statement kinda shows where your coming from, your shortcut is somebody’s daily commute which now will add to their working day also add to the volume of traffic on residential areas. Remember 3% bring on the next election
