Dublin implements traffic changes in August, prioritizing walking, cycling, and public transport, and restricting car use.

In August, Dublin is set to implement major traffic changes as part of its Transport Plan, aiming to reduce traffic in the city centre, prioritise walking, cycling and public transport, and restrict car use. Bus gates will be installed on Bachelors Walk and Aston Quay, with cars prohibited from turning left from Westland Row to Pearse Street. The council expects these changes to create a low-traffic environment, change commuters' mental maps of the city, and reduce traffic congestion.
