The Sean O'Casey Bridge could be lifted each night to stop gangs using the bridge as a location for fights.
The residents in City Quay previously told Dublin Live they are "terrified" to leave their homes after 5pm due to the youths fighting and throwing missiles and fireworks at each other. Such is the extreme nature of the anti-social behaviour, residents have to turn the volume on their TVs all the way to the top in order to hear it.
Sean O'Casey Bridge, which runs from the IFSC to City Quay, has a long history of anti-social behaviour with gangs choosing it as a location for a fight. A 13-year-old boy was hospitalised after being stabbed in the area earlier this year.
