No Parking = No City

Who hurt you?

The academics and “planners” go on all expenses paid trips to conferences about “sustainable” cities and come back thinking they can apply those models to Cork.
Reality check: Covid proved that it’s quite possible to work from home. The city centre is slowly transitioning into a giant food court. There is no longer any reason to “commute” into the centre to serve all of the people who are working from home.
It’s over. Time to move on.

Most companies have moved staff back into the office.




You are fake news.





Sad.

Ownership isn’t the issue here. The issue is access. It will be very difficult to pedestrianise the city centre when there are multi storey car parks on the central island.
You know it, I know it, and THEY know it. It’s only a few years ago since they gave permission for the multi storey on Gramd Parade.
And setting fire to a pallet extinguishing it and using it as a “feature,” will make no difference, no matter how many antique bicycles you nail to the ceiling.

No self respecting cork man would ever refer to the area between both channels of the Lee as the central island. It’s the oldest parish in the county. For well over 800 years it’s been heavily defended in keeping out the misfortunes who find themselves living on the wrong side of the city walls.

And to all Norries on here you’re not the centre of the universe & to all the Sorries I pity ye always appear to me to be living in the shadow of the Norries. We’ll have to put a tighter curfew on the gates of the city walls if this moaning continues.

The Central Island Committee

The Marsh extends beyond what is now the central island.

The walls were originally build by invaders to keep the native Irish out.

You are fake news. And the fact that you’re just a spudgobbling mucksavage isn’t an excuse.

Why can't we have a lot more park & ride places? Apart from the Black Ash, we have none.

Why can't we have one, say, just beyond the western end of Ballincollig? No shortage of open space there. This would cater for the needs of commuters from the Macroom direction.

Loads of green fields between Blarney & the city. A park & ride there would meet the needs of commuters from the Blarney and Mallow direction.

Also on the Bandon road - a park & ride somewhere around the viaduct would cater for traffic from West Cork.

And so on, on the other main arteries into Cork.

“The marsh extends beyond what is now the central island”. You’re trying to sound like you have a clu what you’re talking about but you can’t fool me kid.

It’s very easy to explain the geographical area of the Marsh in a few sentences.

Explain it for the PROC or forever hang your head in shame.
