A plaza, extending over a DART line towards the sea, has been proposed for Blackrock in Dublin.

It would involve building over a car park and bus station at Bath Place, connecting shops, bar and restaurants nearby to the seafront according to the Irish Times.

Blackrock Village Rejuvenation Action Group, which is made up of local volunteers, says there will be underground parking for cars and bikes.

While the plan will also mean improved buggy and wheelchair access to the beach.
