Disturbed Dublin, the Story of the Great Strike of 1913-14, with A
DISTURBED DUBLIN DISTURBED DUBLIN THE STORY OF THE GREAT STRIKE OF 1913-14 WITH A DESCRIPTION OF THE INDUSTRIES OF THE IRISH CAPITAL BY ARNOLD WRIGHT LONGMANS, GREEN, AND CO 39 PATERNOSTER ROW. LONDON FOURTH AVENUE & 30th STREET, NEW YORK BOMBAY. CALCUTTA, AND MADRAS 1914 All rights reserved ,3^^ ^^l'' PREFACE The great labour upheaval in Dublin in the latter half of last year was marked by such extraordinary features, and excited so large a share of public attention during the time that the struggle continued, that no apology will probably be deemed to be necessary for the publication of this volume. The author's aim has been to write a succinct and impartial history of the Larkinite movement in Dublin, from the period of its inception in 1908 until the resumption of the normal industrial life of the city early in the present year, in circumstances which marked the ignominious defeat of the attempt to establish a pecuHarly pernicious form of Syndicalism on Irish soil. During a visit of several weeks' duration paid to Dublin in the Spring, the author had the opportunity of meeting many of those who had taken an active part in the conflict, and their views freely and courteously given were a valuable aid to a comprehension of the true character of the influences which brought about this memorable episode in Ireland's industrial history. But to a large extent in the accompanying pages Larkinism has been allowed to speak for itself, and it is hoped that the numerous elegant extracts culled from the press organ of the movement, together with the equally illumi- nating quotations from the speeches of Mr. -

10 Worst Junctions in Dublin
Dublin Cycling Campaign PO Box 10295 Dublin 6w [email protected] www.dublincycling.ie 2011- January 18th Dublin City Council Cycle Forum Re: Schedule of dangerous places for cyclists in Dublin. The cyclists’ view The Dublin Cycling Campaign recently asked its members and friends which parts of the Dublin street fabric they find could benefit from re-design. This report sets out the feedback received, under the following headings- 1. The Quays- including bridges and surrounding roads 2. North City centre 3. South City centre 4. North city outside canals 5. South city outside canals The ten junctions most cited in our survey are printed in red. Illustrations have been copied from Google Maps and other sources where possible. One constantly-recurring feature of the feedback is the fear and danger arising from multi-lane systems. 1 1. The Quays Grattan bridge, turning right onto Essex Quay, the bridge is one way and cars are pushing behind and you're not sure which side of the lane you should cycle: very dangerous! Talbot Memorial Bridge [1] Heading left on to city quay, you're directed off road on the corner, conflict with peds and lose priority when joining the road after the corner [2] Heading straight or heading right, the time delay on the toucan crossing can take ages even when there’s light traffic. 2 Ormond Quay junction with Jervis Street Presence & position of cycle lane encourages cars to turn left across cyclists and knock them over. Victoria Quay (just outside Guinness gate), turning right on to Frank Sherwin Bridge (to then turn left to go up to the Pheonix Park), cyclists need to go from the bus lane to the third of four lanes. -
Roads Layout/Parking and Traffic Management
7.00 ROADS LAYOUT/PARKING AND TRAFFIC MANAGEMENT Survey and Analysis 7.01 Introduction In examining the roads layout, parking and traffic management, the Authority has not sought to replace the Roads Authority in looking at traffic movements through the wider city centre area. Rather it has focused its attention on the enlarged site and its immediate vicinity and the localised traffic management required in that area. The Authority is fortunate in that many of the local distributor routes are operating well below capacity, i.e. Sheriff Street, Commons Street, Guild Street. These streets are wide and have been designed to cater for goods traffic so that they offer not only opportunities to cater for an increase in localised traffic, but also for extensive landscaping proposals which will improve the locality. It can be argued that any redevelopment will increase the traffic loading onto the city centre network. However, the sites within the enlarged Custom House Docks Area must be seen within their historic context where they catered for very extensive movements by heavy goods vehicles. The traffic movements have also been examined in the context of the Ministerial amendment to the Planning Scheme in 1987 that the road layout within the original Area shall be so designed as to serve only traffic arising from the development within the Area. The Authority, in meeting the Ministerial amendment, has sought, in consultation with the Roads Authority, to provide for two major access points to the site. The first operational access is from the Amiens Street/Memorial Road/Store Street junction where a new signalised junction was installed. -

Adjutant, Dublin Brigade, I.R.A Subject. 'F' Company, 2nd Battalion, Dublin Brigade, - I.R.A., 1915 Truce. Conditions, if any, Stipulated by Witness. Nil. File No. S.512. Form B.S.M.2 STATEMENTBY SENATORHARRYCOLLEY, "Ard Mhuire", 11 Mount Prospect Avenue, DUBLIN. I joined the Volunteers about January, l914, - "B" Company, 1st Battalion, at 41 Parnell Square. At that tine there was a very lane number of men in "B" Company and we were being drilled by ex-British Army Instructors. I suffered from slight deafness and occasionally I found the British Army accent of the Instructors impossible to understand. This rather worried me as I seemed on occasion to upset the whole Company. In addition to that, my chum who had joined with me, suddenly came to the conclusion that these men were in earnest and said to me that he had only joined for the fun of it. He said, "I think they mean to fight", and I said, "Of course, they do. Isn't that what they're here for?'. He said, never meant to fight, I'm getting out". I always admired his moral courage about it, but in any event I fell out too on account of my hearing, but I kept on buying "The Volunteer" and other papers every week. An advertisement appeared regularly in "The Volunteer" for the Auxiliary as a unit for those who could not attend the ordinary parades but who were prepared to help when the fight should come. -
