Dún Laoghaire-Rathdown County Council has announced that planned industrial action will impact local authority services on Wednesday, 14 October 2026. All council buildings, such as County Hall and libraries—including My Open Libraries—will be closed to the public for the day.
The council's main phone line (01 205 4700) will operate only for emergency calls during the strike. Residents are advised to use online platforms for non-urgent matters, but delays and service changes should be anticipated. Fire and emergency homeless services will continue without interruption, and funerals at Shanganagh and Deansgrange cemeteries will proceed as usual.
Access to certain parks and playgrounds may be limited, and all council-managed all-weather pitches will be closed. Ballyogan Civic Amenity remains open, while Eden Park and Shanganagh Recycling Centres will shut for the day. For emergencies, contact 01 205 4700 during office hours or 01 677 8844 after 5pm. The council apologises for any inconvenience and appreciates public understanding during this disruption.
