May not look much but it’s a surface drainage system to enable construction of #Bray Station civic plaza - safe walking, cycling, lighting & pedestrian crossings. Drainage installed under track last year in well planned advance work. Lots of work before the good stuff appears!

Lovely start to the morning, joined the St Kevin’s #Greystones cycle-bus 1st birthday celebration. Lots of happy kids greeted by friends & parents at the school. Mostly safe and segregated route with some improvement ideas & surface issues to discuss with District Engineer.

Today's tragic events are a sobering reminder of the need for safe infrastructure. As the news broke, @RSAIreland were in front of an Oireachtas Committee. They were asked had they ever made submissions in support of safe infrastructure. Their silence in response speaks volumes.

Good news to make it more affordable to energy proof your home. Reducing heat loss & electricity usage, improving health/quality of life and adds value to your home. Encourages scale up of providers of retrofitting & solar installations driving competitiveness. #KeepGoingGreen

It seems some clarity is needed. NPWS owns these sites and its ecologists will work to restore nature in the area. Bringing damaged habitats like the Conor Pass & Mount Brandon back to good ecological condition is about so much more than erecting a fence and walking away.

You wait 25 years for a new National Park, then two come along at once 😆 Min. @noonan_malcolm has had a transformative impact in his role - increased funding into heritage, NBAP on statutory footing, NPWS reform, and two new National Parks. Now that's delivery! #KeepGoingGreen

This alternative politics based on fear and division is on the rise. The Republic we adhere and aspire to is a tolerant one, respectful of every colour or creed, celebrating diversity and providing shelter to those in need. - @eamonryan #KeepGoingGreen #GPRally24
