Fine Gael Councillors back Electric Cars for Dublin

May 13th, 2010

Dublin could get a pool of electric cars, which would be available for public use, under proposals being mooted by Fine Gael to Dublin City Council.

The party will propose the shared electric car scheme, similar to the recently-introduced Dublin Bikes scheme, at a council meeting tomorrow.

To ask the Manager to install pedestrian lights at the junction of Clanwilliam Place and Lower Grand Canal Street.

Report
There are plans to upgrade the pedestrian/ cyclist crossing facilities at this junction as part of the Portobello to East Wall Premium Cycle Route.

The existing crossing at Clanwilliam Place itself will be upgraded to a Toucon Crossing (to cater for cyclist and pedestrian movement.)

Two new “Toucon Crossing” (Pedestrian/Cyclist) are planned at Lower Grand Canal Street just West of Grand Canal Quay and east of Clanwilliam Place.
This work is planned for completion before the end of the year.
