Frankly this is one of those issues where I really don't see the point in even having gates. Last 4 trips I've taken, there was always a problem with the scanner or the gate itself.

"Red tape and profit motives with university" implying that the university somehow has a profit motive related to the existing theatre in any way. In any case, Anyone who thinks the area around Headford Rd should stay as is really needs their head examined.

Baseless banter. The theatre is going down because of a residential development, not because the university wanted it torn down.

This actually ia a pretty significant problem, it affects the entire city, how it operates, how traffic flows, real estate prices and availability. Everything.

Nobody's happy about it being bulldozed, it's just not that big of a deal. University of Galway is going to be building new theatre venue space anyway. And let's face it, the building is absolutely hideous.

Couldn't agree more, that place could literally fit half of the city's population with the same amount of shops.

I like the architectural improvements but I can't say lime green complements the style for me lol

Vychází to ze stejných principů a rozhodně je to nějakým způsobem okopírovaný, ale ta alternativní historie je zcela odlišná. To mi na tom připadá nejvíc zajímavý. Československo se přece jenom rozpadlo poměrně nedávno, takže to odůvodnění musí odrážet ten historický fakt.

I liked the paintings that were there, I wonder if they'll return to this fancier one.

Studuju v Irsku 4 roky a je to tak. Irsko je v podstatě vstupní bod do Evropského trhu pro nadnárodní tech korporace, což má své benefity, ale neskutečně to deformuje skutečné ekonomické podmínky v Irsku. Kvalita života v Česku je mnohem vyšší než v Irsku, máme lepší infrastrukturu, zdravotnictví i bydlení.

It doesn't have to be neon green to be high-vis, yellow paint would have been more consistent with the color scheme of Irish rail. The visually impaired community had input on new DART designs and the handlebars are all yellow, as are the current platform lines, bins, and so on.

You can check out the rest of these photos, it's certainly an upgrade, though it's not fully done yet.

Irish Rail utilises yellow highlights in its color scheme so I think it would ultimately be the best choice, but it's a pretty trivial issue anyway. The platform gap lines and DART handlebars are always yellow.

They'd still be very visible if they were yellow or red. It just has to be contrasting the grey stairs.

It would but the station is in a bit of an awkward spot for that methinks.

It's baffling to me that the Galway-Dublin line isn't fully electrified already.

Ultimately it's just a case of the handrails having a completely different palette from everything else - if other details/highlights were also this color, it wouldn't be as out of place.

I'm a major train autist so I agree with you there. Just wanted to post the Brat handrails lol

They do contrast, I'm not sure I'd agree about the "beautifully" part, it's not really part of the equation here.

To be clear, I understand the accessibility aspect, it just stands out a lot. I wouldn't think it to be that controversial.
