I thought there could be a bank of template designs to suit virtually all locations but was told each one has to be designed for its location. I was very impressed by this one on a narrow footpath on Rochestown Avenue

Did you know: the humble bus shelter currently requires planning permission in Ireland.
It takes longer for us deliver bus shelters than other countries build entire underground rail lines. but there's an easy solution: make bus shelters exempt from planning.
