A number of bus stops are to be moved or removed during the development of the Clontarf to city centre cycle route.
Dublin City Council issued a notice on its social media today about the plans and it appears only one new bus stop will be added along the track. While six will be moved, seven will be removed and seven will be retained in their current position.
Locals have already shared their unhappiness with the construction of the track which has shut traffic in Fairview and North Strand in recent weeks. But some local representatives have accused others of "spreading misinformation" and "jumping on the negativity bandwagon".

The project aims to provide 2.7km of segregated cycle lanes, bus priority infrastructure from Clontarf to Amines Street. Works will also be carried out on 100-year-old water mains along the route as well as the construction of public plazas and the plantation of semi-mature trees.
Here's how bus stops along the route are set to change:
