Plans to shut a popular recycling centre in North Strand have been shelved following a successful campaign by local representatives on the foot of public concern.
The Shamrock Terrace Recycling Centre's future was put into question last February when plans were put into place to "downgrade" the centre. But on the foot of concerns raised by councillors on Dublin City Council, the council has said the plans are being "reviewed".
Independent councillor Nial Ring has been campaigning about the facility's downgrade since rumours came to light about its potential closure. He has said that the decision by Dublin City Council is an indication that the plans will ultimately be abandoned.
