## Resource

Dublin’s streets are getting a bike-friendly makeover as the city council rolls out secure “bike bunkers” — compact, six-bike sheds that replace car spots — sparking both excitement and resistance. With over 3,000 requests already pouring in, mostly from apartment dwellers willing to pay €100 annually for secure storage, the pilot program’s success has led to a city-wide rollout. Only a few hundred spaces installed so far, but waitlists already stretch to 1,800+. The council is now drafting a “Sustainable Kerbside Policy,” aiming to convert 10-30% of curb spaces into mobility hubs — not by eliminating parking, but by intelligently reallocating it for bikes, car-sharing, and accessibility, while balancing safety, disabled needs, and existing parking demands.
