Images and videos of a new white water rafting facility at George's Dock in Dublin have been unveiled.

The 3D model shows an inner flat pool that will be surrounded by a slalom canoe course.

The dock was previously used to host Christmas markets and Oktoberfest.

The multi-million euro plan for the currently unused space was approved by councillors on the Central Area committee earlier this month.

A full council meeting next month will decide whether the attraction should get the go ahead.

The course is designed to be a tourist attraction and to be used by sports clubs.

Dublin Fire Brigade and other emergency services will also use the space as a training resource.

According to TheJournal.ie, the €22m project is expected to take up to 18 months to complete.

Construction is expected to get underway next year.
