Phoenix Park Transport and Mobility Options Public Consultation

February 5, 2021 | Posted in Alerts, General, Planning

The long awaited public consultation on the future of access to the Phoenix Park is now open. It runs until Friday 12 March 2021.

Due to the pandemic, the public consultation is being run entirely on-line:  http://phoenixpark.virtualeventspace.io/

Among the proposals being considered are: 

  • Expanding and upgrading cycle links and networks in and around the Phoenix Park (14km of new cycle lanes and upgrade of over 17km of existing lanes and links).
  • Prioritisation of pedestrian infrastructure, including upgrade of 7km of footpaths and pedestrian crossings.
  • Piloting – making the North Road, Knockmaroon Road and Upper Glen Road into cul-de-sacs for 9 months later this year.
  • A bus connecting Heuston Station to Broombridge Luas and train station through the Park but no connection to Castleknock or Blanchardstown.
  • Reducing the speed limit to 30kmph.
  • Cabra Gate open to bus only. 
  • Ashtown Gate to be entry only.
  • Cul de sac on Knockmaroon Road north of the gates, with access to car parking but no through road 

Detailed proposal document

There is a 137 page PDF Transport and Mobility Options Study document available.

It is planned to implement the proposals on a phased basis over a 7 year period. The document describes the proposals included in each phase.
