New lights are being installed at busy junctions in the city to alert distracted pedestrians.

Tara Street is the first to see the lights, that illuminate the ground, installed.

They are being added in a bid to get people, who are looking down at their phones or otherwise distracted, to pay attention to the traffic ahead.

Green party councillor Feljin Jose says the council is trying out a number of options;

"So there's one or two at Capel Street but it's a different design. They're trying a few different things to see what works and what doesn't."

He says the lights have been added at very busy junctions in city centres elsewhere.
