Hi Sarah, Aidan, this project touches on a lot of your conversation here. bsky.app/profile/dccb...
New BETA Project: #StreetMixBETA
Could we design a better process for residents to decide the kerbside uses on 'their' street and balance with public needs?
More information dccbeta.ie/project/arti...
Looking for volunteer streets, so please spread the word! 🙏

There's some additional info in the alt text. They're where people had applied for spaces within a BikeBunker - light blue looking for 1 space, dark blue 2 spaces (which was the cap).
Mapping expressions of interest in a trial is useful to give a sense of scalability and types of areas interested.

Hi Oisín, one option could be to let people themselves decide. Even with side passages, they may have reasons to want them. Then install based on demand.

Perhaps the best analogy for #NeighbourhoodBETA is a 'vending machine for neighbourhood options'.
As new solutions get progressed, DCC would add those 'new products' to the 'vending machine' (prob a website).
Areas could easily see their options, choose for trialling, vote whether to keep or not.

Thanks. We ran some tests, learned a lot and will return to it...and need to update that project page.
It's here in the project pipeline. trello.com/b/8jXnfMIO/b...
3 projects, #NeighbourhoodBETA, #StreetMixBETA and that 'Street Priorities' project mentioned are all somewhat related.

Thanks Darragh.
Also just to note that the #BikeBunkers tender and contract was designed to enable the other 3 local authorities in Dublin to use also - saving them the procurement effort and time.
So same as #DublinCanvas, it's a solution for the Dublin Region.

There's actually also a specific "play street" sign in addition to that regular blue woonerf sign. Here... maps.app.goo.gl/Fba1vN9GroXm...
@bicycledutch.bsky.social @cathytuttle.bsky.social @cianginty.bsky.social Anyone know any more about whether this is a regular initiative in the NL?
