Public Consultation Launches On Capel St/Parliament St Traffic-Free Streets Initiative

Dublin City Council has launched a public consultation on the ongoing Capel St/Parliament St traffic-free streets initiative.

The City Council wants to hear from anyone who has a view on the traffic-free weekend evenings, and anyone who would like to express a view on what options should be further explored for both streets.


During the consultation period, the City Council will be consulting with all key stakeholders including the emergency services and disability groups.

Following the period of public consultation, a report will by prepared for consideration by the elected members. Detailed planning of the preferred option will then be advanced.

Any option which is advanced will be subject to further consultation and any necessary statutory requirements.

The initiative is part of a wider programme led by the Office of City Recovery and was planned and implemented by the Traffic Department in Dublin City Council.
