Dublin traffic faces years of potential disruption as Eirgrid confirms expansion plans

Eirgrid has announced plans for five new underground cable routes in Dublin.

The public have been invited to discuss the proposed electricity overhaul, which would see 50km of underground cables installed in Dublin. Eirgrid has said that the consultation process, spanning eight weeks, will allow the project to go ahead with minimal disruption.

The new routes will link substations at North Wall and Poolbeg, Finglas and North Wall and Carrickmines and Poolbeg. Meanwhile, two cables will link the Inchicore and Poolbeg substations.
