FOLLOWING THE CLOSURE of the lower end of Dawson Street earlier this month, another change has been announced to facilitate the Luas Cross City construction.
However, this change is set to be permanent.
The right turn from O’Connell Street to Cathal Brugha Street will close on the morning of Wednesday 9 November.
The alternative route to the area for general traffic is via Parnell Square, Gardiner Row, Great Denmark Street and Hill Street. This is shown on the map below.
Buses, taxis and cyclists may access the area via Parnell Square and O’Connell Street, turning left into Cathal Brugha Street from the O’Connell Street southbound carriageway.
It comes as the Transport Minister agreed to suspend some Luas works before Black Friday, following calls from businesses owners.
Works will be suspended on Dawson Street, Nassau Street, Lower Grafton Street, pedestrian areas at College Green, Westmoreland Street and footpaths on O’Connell Street.
Planned pavement works outside business premises will also be deferred until January 2017, but the work around Trinity College will continue in November and December.

Looks like a better use of a wall might be to protect them!
Every time you put fish or any other type of meat on your plate, you are enabling the extinction of creatures like this. You can make up all the excuses in the world for yourself but it doesn’t change this reality. So if you are a meat eater then you should not be outraged by this article because you are death, the destroyer of worlds.
@Pounamustone: Vegetarians go against evolution. Look at your teeth. They’re designed to cut through meat and veg. If we weren’t omnivores, we’d have teeth like cows.
P.s My food shits on your food.
@David: Like I said there are plenty of excuses but they don’t change the reality.

@Pounamustone: You will never know the pleasure of a bank holiday Monday morning bacon sandwich mmmmmm
@Soccer T’s: with a hape of brown sauce
@Pounamustone:
I don’t eat much red meat myself but your post is sadly ridiculous. WE are omnivores.Some of us eat meat as part of our diet.
Between five and ten per cent of our animals are carnivores. The Human Being is part, (albeit sometimes a destructive part) of bio diversity
Just because meat is not part of your diet, you are not entitled to be so sanctimonious.
@Pounamustone: meat is murder!!! Tasty, delicious, nutritious murder.
@Pounamustone: utter rubbish.
@Ger Healy: it’s a long time since humans were part of bio diversity. There’s nothing natural about factory farming and us killing over 50 billion land animals per annum. To me what is ridiculous is you trying to justify your part in the destruction of the planet. We’ve evolved so that we no longer have to eat meat so we simply shouldn’t. I don’t mind being sanctimonious about that.

@Soccer T’s: I had some bacon and scrambled egg this morning, yum yum yum.
China again. China will end up killing humans.
I think I know a guy who’s interested in walling in Mexicans!
