Dundrum Gardai blocking visibility of school traffic warden outside their station

They're at it again.

Why not drive into the station car park if they have some loading or unloading to do?

Contraflow cycle lane? Get in there, says the Aramark lads outside AIB Bank Dundrum

Contraflow cycle lanes are one of the few kinds of cycle lanes that are mandatory for cyclists to use. These lads got nice and close to the cones, making near it impossible for any cyclist to get through. Took a chunk of footpath for their convenience.

If only there was some available parking nearby that they could have used...

Can't expect the Musgrave Marketplace truck to not block the bus lane when there's no space at the nearby loading ba - - - Oh wait a minute

Should we just shut down the contraflow bike lane on Chancery Lane if Gardai are going to be parking on it for the duration of the EU presidency?

Cyclists! 2 minutes to help improve bike parking? 🚴

Hello, we’re a design group exploring ways bike parking in Dublin could be made safer, more practical and better suited to what cyclists actually need.

Rather than jumping straight to a design, we’re collecting real experiences first (what works, what’s frustrating, and what could be improved)!

The survey is anonymous and takes around 2 minutes.

Bike parking & cycling survey 🚴 – Fill in form

Your response could help shape a more useful and genuinely user-focused bike parking solution.

Dublin mums and dads... what kind of bicycle are we using to haul small children and where do we buy it??

We recently moved here and we're searching for a bike to haul our 3 year old to creche and around town. Priorities are safety and ease, but would like to be somewhat cost effective if possible. Looking for some pedal assist too cause my nearly 40 year old quads are soft. What are all of you riding and what do you recommend??

Why don't bloody cyclists use contraflow cycle lanes?

Because Gardai, DLR Council, delivery vans, painters and others keep parking in them. And don't forget the bins of course.

Wet and slippy Francis St, taxi man just HAS to push through beside me to make the right turn that is five seconds up ahead.

Irish School of Motoring ISM teaching learners early to park illegally on the footpath endangering vulnerable pedestrians to save drivers from the trauma of having to pass a parked car.

Dundrum Gardai don't respect school pencil bollards

Air conditioning works happening at the station, so it's OK to park Garda vehicles behind the pencil bollards and let the construction crew park on the footpath apparently.

Pavement parking is illegal and endangers vulnerable pedestrians, especially people with sight loss.

Looks like Gardai are enabling pavement parking outside Dundrum station

Because we couldn't be expecting drivers to slow down for a second or anything

White van man thinks indicator gives him right of way

No bother to him, cutting across another lane of traffic, but sure he had his indicator on.

Firmware upgrade to SyncEV charger not updating, via Monta

My home charger from SyncEV has been showing a firmware upgrade waiting for installation for a couple of weeks now.

I've done the Update Firmware operation from Monta a few times and it shows in the log as 'Firmware update requested', but the update doesn't progress.

I've tried soft rebooting the charger from Monta and hard rebooting it from the isolator switch but that doesn't change anything. The charger is working normally and charging away when connected.

Is anyone else having the same issue?
