Dublin City Council has announced extra cleaning resources for the city centre have been allocated to clean dirty streets.
It comes fresh off complaints of Dublin's lack of cleanliness on its most popular streets. Issues that have arisen include piles of discarded cans, bottles, coffee cups and pizza boxes along the Grand Canal, grimy grease-stained streets and urine soaked alleyways in the media and from politicians.
Now Dublin City Council has moved to confirm they are tackling the issue. They have said that the influx of tourists into the capital presents "challenges" during the Summer months.
