Greater Dublin Area Cycle Network

The Greater Dublin Area Cycle Network is a planned cycle network for the Greater Dublin Area. The plan was launched in 2013.
The Irish Government set a target of having one in ten total trips made on bicycle by 2020, and one of the main measures to achieve this target was the development of a "safe, comfortable and high-quality cycling network". This led the transport authority of the Greater Dublin Area (GDA) to draft a cycle network plan, which was published in December 2013. The plan expected that the Greater Dublin Area's existing cycle network would increase from 500 km in length to 2,900 km by 2020.
In August 2018, 78 companies and 3rd level education institutions publicly called on the government to build a network of segregated cycle routes in Dublin. The public call was joined by the National Children's Hospital and St. James's Hospital in 2019.
