Dublin City Council have commenced work on the refurbishment of Temple Bar Square.
The Temple Bar Square Area Improvement Scheme covers approximately 2,400 square meters and encompasses Crown Alley, Temple Bar Square, Temple Bar Street and parts of Fownes Street Lower and Cope Street. The project will see Temple Bar Street reconstructed with granite footpaths and the traditional Temple Bar cobbled carriageways.
The council aims to make the area a "pedestrian friendly space" and to facilitate more public and cultural activities. The total cost of this project is €5 million and the work is expected to take 18 months to complete.
