…equipped to handle future vehicle types if required, such as full battery electric vehicles and hydrogen vehicles.

The Broadstone depot dates back to 1850. A number of original features have been retained, such as its cast iron structure and the old overhead gantry cranes.

Dublin Bus also said it has become the first semi-State organisation in Ireland to install swift nesting boxes onto a site.

The depot, which is one of eight, has the capacity for 120 buses

I’ve been passing this building project daily for a couple of months now. Built lengthways (?) across a number of back gardens that back onto Western Way, the building has what appeares to be a tower on one end and a curved wall on the other... What could it be?

Well, this morning I spotted it’s crowning piece… a shiny Christian cross. What an odd place to build a church :) Anyone know who is moving in?
