Expired or Superseded Plans
The plans and other documents listed below are associated with former Development Plans, have been superseded or expired. They may be of historic interest.
In many cases, these plans were superseded by a statutory plan, such as Strategic Development Zone Planning Schemes or Local Area Plans. For this reason, they are chiefly of historic interest only.
However, in the absence of any superseding plan, these plans may have some relevance. This would be measured against the policies and objectives of the current Dublin City Development Plan and other national guidelines, such as the Design Manual for Roads and Streets 2013.
