Changes will be made to the way the 'Portal' installation in Dublin is operating due to the "inappropriate behaviour" of some of those who are using it, Dublin City Council has said.
The "technical solutions" will go live in the next 24 hours, the council said, adding that it will continue to monitor the use of the art installation which connects Dublin and New York via a live visual link.
The council said a very small minority of people had been engaged in the inappropriate behaviour at the portal which is located between O’Connell Street and North Earl Street in Dublin city centre and that it had been "amplified through social media".
"While we cannot control all of these actions, we are implementing some technical solutions to address this and these will go live in the next 24 hours. We will continue to monitor the situation over the coming days with our partners in New York to ensure that Portals continue to deliver a positive experience for both cities and the world."
Dublin City Council has not specified what technical changes will be made.
