In Dublin 15, councillors say they’re inundated with complaints about slippery leaves on footpaths. “It's no exaggeration. I've had at least 20 different people coming to me with this issue,” Councillor Angela Donnelly said.

A councillor has renewed calls for a community toilet scheme in Dublin city centre. Council officials say they’ve already tried and it flopped. So how have towns elsewhere managed to set them up?

Remembering our sister Jennifer Barrett on “World Day of remembrance for road traffic victims”. The car accident happened 49 years ago and we still mourn her loss. We also lost her unborn child that day. PLEASE take care on the roads and always be alert to the unexpected. #speirgorm

At a recent conference, advocates highlighted another route to justice for victims seeking solace. Only a fraction of victims are referred to restorative justice at the moment – but the number is growing.

A new traffic light on Collins Avenue creates more danger than it prevents, councillors say. It’s meant to control traffic leaving the Whitehall Colmcille GAA clubhouse car park, across a footpath, onto the road.
