Dublin street closure
A portion of Brannigan Street, near the Dublin Centre development, will be temporarily closed over the next several weeks for construction work, according to the city.
The city will be installing utilities in that area and will also look to make curb, gutter, sidewalk and pavement improvements. This work began on Monday (Feb. 2).
According to the city, the temporary closure will affect southbound Brannigan Street between Dublin Boulevard and Gleason Drive until March 20. Northbound Brannigan Street will remain open during the closure.
“Detour signs will be in place,” the city stated on its website. “Motorists traveling east on Gleason Drive may access Brannigan Street by turning right on southbound Grafton Street, right on westbound Central Parkway, and right on northbound Brannigan Street.”
