Tallaght QBC Enhancements – The N81

The Quality Bus Network Project Office in partnership with South Dublin County Council has prepared a preliminary design to introduce bus lanes on The Tallaght Bypass (The N81) between Old Bridge Road and Spawell Road roundabout and between the M50 and Fortunestown Road. The scheme will provide the maximum bus priority along the route and will involve widening sections of The Tallaght Bypass. It will also provide improved cycle facilities, improved safety measures and the upgrading of pedestrian crossing facilities. When completed, The Tallaght Bypass QBC will provide a direct route from Tallaght to Dublin city centre, allowing for quick and reliable bus services.

The Green Route QBC - Old Bawn Road

The Quality Bus Network Project Office in partnership with South Dublin County Council has prepared a preliminary design to introduce bus lanes on a section of the Green Route QBC on Old Bawn Road between Firhouse Road and the N81. The scheme will provide the maximum bus priority along the route and will involve widening of Old Bawn Road. It will be necessary to remove a number of trees along the route. Some of these will be replaced with semi-mature trees at Dodder Valley Park while some will be replaced with young trees at the same position. The scheme will also provide improved cycle facilities, improved safety measures and the upgrading of pedestrian crossing facilities.
