Does anyone know when the 3 armed lamp standards are returning to the central median of O’ Connell Bridge? Presumably they are being restored like the 3 armed ones were on the balustrade a couple of years ago, and that they are being converted back to their five armed glory, apparently the 2 arms of each one, and the balustrade ones, were chopped off in 1941 due to ‘safety concerns’.

I think O’Connell Bridge is badly in need of a makeover. It cant be waiting on the street revamp or LUAS surely….its been like this for years! Again I cant see why they cant just get on with elements of the redevelopment plan while they are waiting to make progress on other more difficult areas like the Spire or the Carlton site or the LUAS area.

Exactly, the tarmac is awful and covered in chewing gum. The balustrading is filthy dirty, as are the traffic/pedestrian light-posts. Some decent granite paving, street furniture and the restored lamp standards would make the world of difference to the bridge, and make an impressive statement at the entrance to
O’ Connell Street.
