I can see they’ve removed the loop past the Science and Industry Museum in the City Centre, but I can’t see where they’ve added on the missing distance (unless it’s in adjustments to the start/finish locations). I’ll be very surprised if this goes ahead in October. And this article sums up why irishtimes.com
