Dublin Port Masterplan

Pixel Eater · 21-02-2017 6:38pm #1

Hello all. Anyone have thoughts on this? They're in consultation with the public at the minute, until early March. It would nice to have the port (or the seafront at least) better integrated with the city.

I'm a big fan of the integrated cruise terminal proposal!

Seen a similar implementation in Barcelona and the open recreational areas is between the offices/hotels/roads/terminal are a big plus for everyone.

Agreed. On a much smaller scale I hope they do up the walk to the South bull Wall. The actual wall itself is great but parts of the way to it look pretty grubby.

Ste.phen · 02-03-2017 3:20pm

I'm not sure what the deal is with ESB's use of the river-front part of their property on the south wall, but i'd love to see a more direct walking/cycling route to the lighthouse through / on the river side of the poolbeg complex without the detour to the south side of the property

My understanding is that Dublin Port will be utilising the waterfront here for port activities (I could be wrong though). Another question is what will be done with the power station...

Pigeon House Road isn't a particularly nice route due to the sewage works next to it.

Very good piece there on the port and the future of Dublin.

Hard to argue with.

Pixel Eater · 21-08-2017 12:14pm

He makes some good points but it's not exactly a new idea: proposals to move the port to Balbriggan were mooted years ago.

I don't agree with him on the capacity problem; Dublin and huge amount of undeveloped land, vacant sites and unused buildings within the M50. Plus a large amount of previous port land has already been redeveloped. Doesn't appear that the port authorities are too keen on relocating for what ever reason.

EmoCourt · 21-08-2017 2:15pm

Interesting article. Is he suggesting moving both freight and passenger services out of Dublin port? It'd be important to retain the tourism footfall from Cruise ships and tall ships.

A lot of major cruise ports in Europe are in ports are remote from their nearest city. Civitavecchia is over 70km from Rome. Livorno is 90km from Florence and 30km from Pisa. A lot of the others are about as close to their cities are Dublin are but the port area, like Dublin's, aren't pedestrian friendly at all or they're too far from the tourist area to want to walk (Barcelona). It's definitely a plus as a cruise passenger to sail into a pleasant, centrally located cruise port like Naples (recently) or Istanbul. I'd imagine that the tall ships could continue to sail up the Liffey even if the port was relocated.

For once, someone is actually blaming the planning system for our transport problems instead of the usual barstool style car bashing mantra. We should be smart enough at this stage to plan entire new urban areas so that much of our day to day business can be within walking distance (including the rail station) - I guess that would be too much to ask of Irish people.

Perhaps not as soulless. However, back in 2006 the Progressive Democrats had a plan for a New York style skyline that would've re-invigorated Dublin Port. It involved moving all port activity to Breamore, just north of Balbriggan. Anyway, the below is an example of how Dublin Port could look:

A few points on that article.

Firstly, Dublin Port themselves may only employ 140 people, but there are thousands working in the port for other companies whose business is entirely associated with it being a port.

Secondly, something like 70-80% of goods imported through Dublin Port are ultimately destined for inside the M50 ring. What sort of congestion will relocating that create and what will be the environmental impact of the thousand of extra/longer truck journeys required?

Thirdly, I'm relatively certain that while the state owns the land, much of it is on long term leases (999yr sort of thing) to companies operating in the port. They'll surely want a cut of any sale, so I don't think relocating would provide the riches that are speculated, particularly when the costs of infrastructure of a new port are considered

Off the top of my head, there's at least 15 ferry sailings per day from Dublin. Will that demand be sustained elsewhere?

Even if ferries and cruise ships were to remain in Dublin and all else move, there would then be the associated costs of two ports to operate. Dublin, as well as the new port, would still require tugs, pilots, dredging etc.

The whole notion seems farcical and entirely impactical to me.

You make some good points, Im assuming also the intention is to keep the ferrys and cruise ships in Dublin.

Maybe it can be phased out gradually, starting maybe with the containers as the infrastructure for this is easier to move as opposed to the big oil storage tanks etc..

The western side of the port by the point depot seems to have alot of container type activity. Since this is close to luas and road network, it makes sense to phase this out first.

I cycled all around the port area one fine day. I think most people dont realise how vast it is.

I agree about McWilliams article being completely underresearched, its pie in the sky thinking really.

Whats the obsession with recreating new york style skylines here

American cities arent known for their aesthetics..european cities are..its why everyone in the world visits european cities. New york is amazing because its dense (high rise does not equal dense btw, vancouver is high rise and 3 times less dense than dublin), because of the buzz, the mixed population, the immigration, the culture venues among other things. Not because tall buildingz

High rise cities are not even slightly enjoyable to walk through. Amsterdam is, houston is not. Think about how a city feels for poeple on the street, not how it looks from an aerial viewpoint

Nobody is talking about destroying the existing city center, that’ll still be there.

Your entire post is your opinion stated as if it were facts. This may come as a shock to you but different people have different opinions, especially about something as subjective as architecture and urban design.

Yeh I know that, what Im saying is that all the modern new developments dont need to be high rise . Levallois perret is a town in the paris metropolitan area and its the most densely populated urban area in europe. No high rises, continuos 5-8 story throughout

If Paris was suffering from an absolutely chronic shortage of housing, offices, hotels within the city limits, and they had the opportunity to redevelop a district next to the heart of Paris, I'd very much doubt that their planners would allow said district to be only 5-8 stories.

They did exactly this, it's called La Defense. Buildings are just a little bit taller.

That town is THE densest place in the entire continent!! Clearly you dont need to go high rise at all to make an incredibly dense city. So why should we have to, theres no guarantee that any high rise area we try develop will become dense either. Especially seeing as most irish people seem to prefer living in low rise buildings.

I'm sorry but non of that is correct!

People travel from all over the world to visit Manhattan! And Manhattan has incredible aesthetics and is one of the most walk-able cities in the world.

Mid and Upper Manhattan aren't particularly high-rise, mostly old 4 to 6 storey houses and buildings. It is only Lower Manhattan where you have the sky scrapers like you see in all the pictures.

Have you actually ever been to Manhattan?

I would agree that we certainly don't want a Houston or Atlanta, but no one is suggesting that. New York is much more a European style city (though not completely, still clearly heavily planned with street blocks).

What is being planned for Dublin is very similar to Manhattan. The existing part of Dublin city center will still much as it is today. High rise development will be focused far away from the current city center down in the port district.

I can point you at dozens of European cities that have a separate "old town" district and a modern "high rise district". Take La Defense in Paris:

As you say, he's "ill informed."

Controversial plan to reclaim part of Dublin Bay ‘dead and will not be revisited’, says chief. That's from last month, they've already started down a totally different route, moving non-core activities to out near the airport.

Perhaps he's been reading about the dredging that they're doing as part of the Alexandra Basin redevelopment, and gotten confused.

Muahahaha · 09-05-2018 5:01pm

If all container shipping were moved to a new port further up the north coast the Port Tunnel would be freed up of trucks and effectively become a new primary commuter route into the city. Unsure if that would be a good or a bad thing

This is an example that a stupid person is someone who should keep their mouth shut for fear of being considered stupid, or opening it and removing all doubt.

In his rant he says the money would build ten Luas lines and later eight, but has a scatter gun approach. He cites among others of Ballymun and Glasnevin as being served by his magical Luas lines, oblivious of the fact that Metro will serve them. Surface running would be fine for the far suburbs, but there is no surface left in Dublin City Centre.

He also states that the airport is served by an adequate bus service. The other evening, I got an Aircoach at St Vincents to go to the Airport, only for the Driver to tell me that the 36 min scheduled time would actually take an hour to an hour and a half as the traffic was appalling. He also said they are having to try different routes to see if they are quicker. It used to take 25 mins for the bus when it avoided the city centre.

The Metro from Tara will be about 20 mins, with a frequency in the order of 2 minutes, instead of travel time between 30 mins and 50 mins and frequency of 30 mins for the bus.

I think he is talking utter rot.

I agree with what you're saying about McDowell's comments but you can't really compare a bus from St. Vincents and a metro from Tara street to the Airport. A bus from across the bridge at Tara street would take less than 30 minutes at any time of the day. The fact that it took an hour to get from Vincent's to there is irrelevant.

Not really when you take into account the frequency difference. Bus every 30 minutes, train every 3 minutes. 70 passengers per bus, 300 per train.

Also, I have been held up on the bus coming out of the tunnel (going South) when a ferry was disgorging the cars and lorries which blocked the road because they were all going down East Wall Road, not allowing the buses (and other traffic) to pass. It took over 15 minutes to clear. The traffic is going to slow buses at any time of the day.

McDowell also considered a student travelling from Cherrywood to DIT in Gormanstown. Luas to Sandyford. Change at Sandyford on to Metro. Change at Charlemont on to Luas. Travel to Gormantown.

If he investigated it properly, he would have realised the student would have to walk for twenty minutes to DIT from the Luas. If he stayed on the Metro, he would have a choice of three stations, but would still face a twenty minute walk.

His blog was an uninformed rant.

I think the metrolink aspects of that awful rant should be discussed in another thread. But, the fact that he slips that bit in at the end about the port, which is really quite irrelevant to the metrolink question, shows him up for what he is - 'fat and happy' in his own comfortable Ranelagh bubble, a couple of miles from where he needs to get to, every day. He's fretting about any change in the fabric of the city that might affect him, even temporarily. And as a (good) lawyer he can put a convincing case that people will take seriously.

That's for ferry companies, not the port company, to decide

Realistically both of those are awful passenger routes as landbridging via the UK, or even France if UK relations get worse, is much faster. Fine for scheduled freight routes.

Muahahaha · 07-07-2020 4:54pm

I guess thats the end of any hope of the port moving up the coast and the land being used for high rise. It was never likely to happen anyway but always thought it made sense to move the port nearer Balbriggan where trucks would still have close motorway access for their onward journey.

Dublin Port Company has today launched a project to deliver the third and final Masterplan, 3FM;

https://www.dublinport.ie/dublin-port-launches-3fm-project-poolbeg-peninsula/

The plan includes;

New bridge over the Liffey east of the EastLink for internal port traffic only (but interestingly including provision for Luas extension to Poolbeg)
The construction of the largest container terminal in the country in front of ESB’s Poolbeg Power Station
Three new new public parks on the Poolbeg Peninsula and 5.5 km of cycle paths and pedestrian routes
New sailing, rowing and maritime campus adjacent to the existing Poolbeg Yacht Club
Site to accommodate utilities needed, firstly, for the City’s district heating scheme powered by the incinerator for the Pembroke at Dublin Four development (more commonly known as Irish Glass Bottle Site)

Proposed new bridge for port traffic and Luas, as well as potential new pedestrian/cyclist bridge across Liffey and proposed Dodder bridge);

Overall map and more images available here;

Somewhat amusing that they'd go through the trouble of adding three news bridges to that photo, but keep the roundabout that's going to be removed once the Exo building is finished in December/January.

ncounties · 19-11-2021 10:49pm

The bridge set-up looks desperate. We should be moving these activities outside of the city, and redeveloping the lands for housing etc. The dedicated trucking route squeezed in between the cycle lane and the marina also looks nuts. Awful.

Sam Russell · 19-11-2021 11:33pm

Does that truck bridge lift? It does not look like it does. Surely that bridge should be further east.

gjim · 20-11-2021 1:48am

I'd prefer if the new bridge were further east. Port vehicles shouldn't need to go near Ringsend or the Point to get across the river - these areas are residential/office/commercial. A high bridge continuing Breakwater Rd south over the river would more directly link the two parts of the port.

AngryLips · 20-11-2021 7:50am

Why can't they rebuild the existing bridge to better accommodate luas and pedestrian instead of this monstrosity?

Pete_Cavan · 20-11-2021 8:21am

https://www.boards.ie/discussion/comment/118195214#Comment_118195214

A single bridge accommodating two general traffic lanes, two port traffic lanes, Luas and peds/cyclists would be a even bigger monstrosity. That's before you consider that building such a bridge at the current location would mean no bridge during the construction.

I'm sure the existing bridge could be reconfigured to accommodate peds/cyclists. It is about 11m wide, the driving lanes could be shifted to the eastern side and narrowed a bit, space for peds/cyclists could be provided on the western side. It could even overhang a bit on the western side to give more space if necessary. Provide a bit of screening between the traffic and peds/cyclists. Replace the railings on either side with something a bit more aesthetically pleasing and it could look decent. This would obviously be a DCC issue, nothing to do with DPC.

Yes that Port plan is poor, it destroys 1 km of riverfront access for normal users. The port, if they want to dig in and expand their prime location, should go and spend their private money building their Bridge or Tunnel further east and high-over or under the linear line of the Liffey. Lisbon and Barcelona, (Copenhagen? ) have sorted their dirty dock activities and Dublin needs to learn from these places and not throw up that awful solution...

https://www.boards.ie/discussion/comment/118195440#Comment_118195440

I'm pretty sure the original intended location for SPAR was further east. The current location seems to have been selected in order to accommodate Luas.

CatInABox · 20-11-2021 11:36am

https://www.boards.ie/discussion/comment/118195490#Comment_118195490

Yes, I believe that it's a DCC requirement, not something the DPC came up with on their own. I could be misremembering though, the last I read on it was an article on the pedestrian bridge that the NTA I think wanted to build down near the central bank, and DCC stopped them. I think anyway, I could be misremembering the locations and the players.
