In a statement Dublin City Council says: "Dublin City Council would like to announce that the first of the measures contained in the Dublin City Transport Plan 2023 will come into effect from 25th August 2024.
"The Chief Executive Richard Shakespeare has made the decision following a review of a number of documents submitted to the Council by various parties.
"On 25th August, traffic management measures are being implemented on the north quays at Bachelors Walk and on the South Quays on Burgh Quay and Aston Quay.
"These changes consist of road marking and signage changes. All other routes on the quays and all other routes in the city remain the same and North-South, South-North access to all Liffey Bridges will remain the same.
"The hours of operation for these new restrictions will be 7am to 7pm Monday to Sunday. Outside these hours the restrictions will not be in operation and all vehicles can travel as before.
"There are no changes to disabled bays, loading bays or taxi ranks. The vast majority of routes to hospitals will remain the same, as will the majority of routes to city centre car parks.
"Access for residents will be maintained although there may be a different route to or from the area."
Decision made: the first sections of the Dublin City Centre Transport Plan are going ahead on 25th of August.
It's the right call by the Chief Exec.
It's been a long fight. Well done to the council staff, councillors, and campaigners who have pushed for this. pic.twitter.com/pLSBU8AF5Z
