Planning approval received for Templeogue / Rathfarnham to City Centre Core Bus Corridor Scheme

The Templeogue / Rathfarnham to City Centre Scheme is part of the BusConnects Dublin programme

16 January 2025

The National Transport Authority (NTA) has received notification of planning approval by An Bord Pleanála for the Templeogue / Rathfarnham to City Centre Scheme. The Templeogue / Rathfarnham to City Centre Scheme is part of the BusConnects Dublin programme, a key element of the Government’s policy to improve public transport and address climate change. The objectives of the Scheme include provision of necessary bus, cycle, and walking infrastructure enhancements that will facilitate modal shift from car dependency contributing to an efficient, low carbon and climate resilient City.

Templeogue / Rathfarnham route from Grange Road to Dame Street via Rathgar Road, Richmond Street South, Wexford Street and Aungier Street

The Templeogue / Rathfarnham to City Centre scheme will commence on the R821 Grange Road at the junction with Nutgrove Avenue, then travel along the R821 Grange Road, the R115 Rathfarnham Road, the R114 Rathfarnham Road, Terenure Road East, Rathgar Road, Rathmines Road Lower, Richmond Street South, Camden Street Upper and Lower, Wexford Street, Redmond’s Hill, Aungier Street, and South Great George’s Street and will terminate at Dame Street.

The Core Bus Corridor from M50 junction 11 interchange through Templeogue to Terenure Cross

The Core Bus Corridor is also routed along the R137 Tallaght Road, commencing east of the M50 junction 11 interchange and is routed via the R137 along Tallaght Road and Templeogue Road, through Templeogue Village, terminating at Terenure Cross.

Alternative cycle facilities

In addition to the above, alternative cycle facilities are provided along Harold’s Cross Road / Terenure Road North between Terenure Cross and Parkview Avenue, as well as along Bushy Park Road, Wasdale Park, Wasdale Grove, Zion Road and Orwell Road.

Construction Stage:

It is expected that all twelve corridors will be completed by 2030 with on-site construction commencing in early 2025.  The construction of the corridors will be delivered on a phased basis in order to reduce the traffic impacts that could arise should all twelve be constructed concurrently. Detailed communication arrangements for the construction phase will be developed to ensure that residents, community groups, businesses and public representatives are kept fully informed and have access to relevant liaison personnel during the delivery of the Scheme.
