Moore Street suffers from years of neglect and requires ambitious and radical interventions to revive it as a vibrant trading street.

On March 2, 2020 Mary chaired the first meeting of the Expert Group, established by Dublin City Council, to define the future of street trading on Moore Street.
The Expert Group, chaired by Mary, is tasked with engaging all stakeholders, articulating a vision for and identifying actions required to ensure successful street trading on Moore Street into the future.
The Expert Group intends producing a first report by May 2020.
