The only way to solve traffic congestion is to make active and public transport better, so people have a real alternative to driving. The Suir Road junction upgrade is a step in the right direction.

How can a government that claims to be serious about infrastructure put Dart+ South West on the shelf?
In a week where we're told the M50 cannot take any more traffic, why are they stopping a project that would take traffic off the roads?

It's great that we're building so many homes at Kylemore and Cherry Orchard. They are badly needed.
But if we don't build the public transport to go with them, we condemn the people living there, and all the existing residents, to a lifetime of sitting in traffic.

The NTA are proposing to build a set of steps to link Chapelizod to the bypass. That sounds good in theory, but in practice, will it work? What do you think?

Protest today in Chapelizod over the serious degradation of the bus service

The NTA have been slow to respond to the problems with the 80 bus route, but I met them this morning and there is some progress...

The government's failure to progress DART South west is infuriating. It condemns tens of thousands of people to spending hours every day sitting in traffic.

I'll be supporting the protest next Saturday in Chapelizod over the cuts to their bus services. See you there?

Before the general election, Fianna Fail and Fine Gael promised they would pass the Occupied Territories Bill. Since the election, they have done everything they can to block it.
It's time to pass the bill.

Junior #parkrun is a great way for kids to start their Sunday. 2k walk, run, or jog, with their friends - it's brilliant to see how much they enjoy it. Find out more at www.parkrun.ie

Talking to @rodericogorman.bsky.social at the national climate protest. Climate action is about protecting our future, but it's also about making our lives better today - warmer homes, lower bills, better public transport. @greenpartyie.bsky.social

I met @oliver.ie and Maria Dollard at the National Traveller Accommodation Committee conference yesterday. We're all members of our local committees. There was a lot of interesting discussion, largely about how to overcome the many obstacles standing in the way of proper housing for Travellers.

Pedestrian lights in the ground so you don't have to look up from your phone

Another application has been made for a gambling arcade in Ballyfermot
So I've put in another objection.
I can do this all day...

March for Climate

On this day fifty years ago, Moroccans marched in to Western Sahara to annex the territory. They are still there, continuing an illegal settlement programme backed by Israel and the United States.

Chapelizod is being failed by the NTA. The 80 bus is not good enough. We need a reliable, direct route to the city centre.

Platelets are needed in the treatment of cancer patients, newborn babies, bone marrow transplant recipients, and burn victims. But there are only 2000 platelet donors in Ireland, barely enough to meet demand. Become a platelet donor, you'll make a real difference in people's lives.

Libraries are a marvel of modern society. Free to visit, free to borrow, community spaces and quiet spaces. Dublin city libraries just published their development plan, and I had to take a moment to thank them...
