Public Works To Be Carried Out On Thomas Street/James’ Street

According to the Thomas Street Business Association (TBSA), Thomas Street and James’ Street are to get a new swanky look! Work on the Thomas Street Quality Bus Corridor Enhancement Scheme – funded by the National Transport Agency and Dublin City Council – is to begin over the coming weeks, and elements of the street will be cleaned up in the process. The contractor is Wills Bros Ltd.

WORK PLANNED:
• general improvements to road and footpath pavements
• full reconstruction of the road pavement between Francis Street and Bridgefoot Street
• extension of the existing bus lanes, both inbound and outbound
• improve cycle facilities
• improved junctions
• new traffic signal and pedestrian crossings
• upgrade of the public lighting
• improved street furniture and the removal of clutter
• drainage and services works

TIMETABLE/DISRUPTIONS:
The project is expected to take 9 months to complete, with work moving along the street and disruption outside individual premises expected to be for a short duration. There will be some traffic and parking disruption during the project. Disturbances are not expected to businesses during the Christmas period.
