New bus gate reshapes Dundrum village centre

A one‑way, bus‑only road will join Sweetmount Avenue to Main Street, adding a Bus Gate and a new stop on the Dundrum bypass. Backed by €4 million URDF funds, the plan will revamp Waldemar Terrace after consultation.

A one‑way, bus‑only road will be constructed to link Sweetmount Avenue with Main Street, creating a dedicated Bus Gate and an additional stop on the Dundrum bypass. The scheme, funded by a €4 million Urban Regeneration and Development Fund investment, will also see the existing bus lay‑over spaces on Waldemar Terrace redistributed to nearby agreed locations.

New public realm east and north of Waldemar Terrace
Civic space with landscaping, planting, seating and natural play
Improved safety and accessibility for pedestrians and cyclists
Enhanced connectivity for residential, commercial and community users

The projects form part of the long‑term vision set out in the Dundrum Local Area Plan and will be delivered sequentially, each undergoing its own planning and public consultation process. Details and design proposals will be published on the Transforming Dundrum page, where residents can share their views during the relevant consultation periods.
