'Ugly black box': Toilet for bus drivers gets go ahead despite residents' objections

Dublin Bus wants a 'prefabricated drivers’ welfare facility' adjacent to a bus stop on Brehon Field Rd in Ballinteer.

Residents from a housing estate in south Dublin have failed in their attempt to block Dublin Bus from erecting a portable toilet for drivers at a nearby terminus, which one claimed would be used as a "drop off point for drugs".

An Coimisiún Pleanála upheld Dún Laoghaire-Rathdown County Council approval of a Dublin Bus “prefabricated drivers’ welfare facility” adjacent to a bus stop on Brehon Field Rd in Ballinteer.
