Shoppers in Tallaght have slammed new car parking barriers that they claim have caused "chaos" at a popular shopping centre.
The Square Tallaght has recently introduced new car parking barriers and parking fees, with shoppers now having to pay €1 for three hours, with anything over costing €2 per hour. On Friday, there were chaotic scenes as drivers were stuck in the multi-storey car park.
Footage shared with Dublin Live shows long queues of cars trying to exit the centre's car park, with horns blaring in frustration at the slow process. One shopper told Dublin Live that there was a "27 minute backlog to get in and out" of the car park, and claimed that the new car parking barriers are to blame for the traffic chaos.
