Meanwhile on the Roads...

Yeah certainly it wouldn't happen very often. Free flowing traffic is great but the odd stoppage here and there doesn't frustrate the majority of drivers. Going back to the main point, seeing a cycle lane getting used appropriately should frustrate nobody

People who drive during rush hour and school pick-up times should know what they are getting themselves in for as well

Interested to hear what way it's become more dangerous?

Depends where you're coming into the city centre from, anywhere within the DCC area usually has good cycle lane coverage and the vehicular traffic is slow enough to get around…

As an alternative to getting on a overcrowded Bus or being sat in a hardly moving vehicle and the stress of parking in Dublin city centre, I would take my chances by bicycle any day..

Edit: Although between leaves, gutter cleaning and roadworks it can be pretty dangerous:

I guess it depends on the office, but if there's a switch in my place it's from two wheels to public transport if the weather is that bad. There isn't the access to car parking even if people wanted to have their heads melted being traffic. I still prefer wet on the bike v wet on the dart.

DLR > DCC for my route. I could go from Shankill to Trimbleston Ave all pretty much grade separated/ side roads/ parks*.

That is the case for most, I remember when I worked in Dublin I rented nearby and walked 5 days a week to and from the office with a car in the driveway to get me back home at the weekends and to do a bigger shop

Nothing to say somebody couldn't do the same from further away but cycle instead of walk
