A second BusConnects core corridor for Dublin has been approved by An Bord Pleanála.
The route will run from Clongriffin to the city centre and follows the recent approval of a similar corridor from Liffey Valley.
Both schemes are part of the BusConnects programme for Dublin.
The National Transport Authority (NTA) has said it will now move to the implementation phase of the project.
The NTA said the new corridor will provide a "step-change" in bus services and develop significantly enhanced cycling and walking facilities.
The corridor will start at Mayne River Avenue and run along the Malahide Road to the junction with Marino Mart/Fairview.

"This is the second BusConnects Core Bus Corridor Scheme to be approved by An Bord Pleanála in recent weeks," he said.
"This vital piece of infrastructure, when constructed, will transform bus services along this corridor in North Dublin, allowing passengers to get to their destinations quicker and more conveniently without being impacted by traffic congestion."
NTA CEO Anne Graham said the project will see "significantly enhanced, high quality and reliable bus services, cycling and walking facilities".
The BusConnects programme for Dublin is being rolled out on a phased basis following three rounds of public consultation which ended in 2020.
