This general election is critical for Cork. This is a city of great potential, but we desperately need vision and ambition to fix our broken public transport system. Please take a look at our GE Manifesto, with 12 key areas to fix transport in Cork. corkcommuter.wordpress.com/2024/11/12/gen…

Because of recent developments around the ‘Grok’ tool of this platform, we are working on transitioning our full presence to other media sites.

Cutting this line is also cutting off Cork from direct access to Rosslare - removing freight, business, and tourism opportunities for Cork and the southeast. This government is intent on undermining the transport gains of the previous five years.
Feljin Jose@Feljin_J

They've done it again, they've cut more rail projects. The most criminal one for me is cancelling the reopening of the Waterford-Wexford/Rosslare line. On the left is the All-island Rail Review published by the last government and on the right is the plan published today.

Not to mention the removal of the Shannon Rail Link. The scarce rail gains for Cork in the original plan were sold on the fact that there would be fast and direct services to more cities, towns, and transport hubs. More rug pulling, and yet more defunding of public transport.

🙄 BusConnects Cork not finished until after 2030 🤫 No mention of Blarney station with its P&R 😴 Luas Cork, long fingered until the 2030s 🙃 "Glanmire Urban Greenway" is already funded... 🫥 ...and radio silence on Glanmire-to-city centre
Micheál Martin@MichealMartinTD

Great news as Government approves the €24.3bn Transport Investment Plan, a transformative step toward a modern, sustainable and better-connected Ireland. Well done to Minister Darragh O’Brien for driving this forward.

Decades of underinvestment in public transport amidst the ongoing housing crisis have led to this Government inaction & in some cases direct obstruction means commuters will continue to suffer behind the wheel, when they could be moving on a train or bus rte.ie/news/regional/…

What’s with our politicians? Always negative even when Irish Rail is doing the right thing. We need better and more frequent bus replacement during engineering works not less. echolive.ie/corknews/arid-…

BusConnects Cork has received full cabinet approval. This is an important step for the future of Cork’s bus network, and is essential in order for planning permission to be submitted. Great to see - let’s get building. csalert.ie/4hu5CyM

Post-consultation report from the Cork Luas EPR consultation period has released. Heavy focus from the public on extending the route further, and fixing bottlenecks in Ballincollig and Churchyard Lane. Take a read below. luascork.ie/media/tozgzem0…

The city’s footpaths are a critical part of our urban infrastructure. Unfortunately, maintenance has been overlooked for a long time. That’s why, this year, Cork City Council agreed to take a €4m loan to enable a step-change in footpath maintenance across the city.

Cork is the fastest growing city in an Ireland that is seeing higher than expected. Demand for transport is only increasing - projects like the Cork Luas and BusConnects Cork need to speed up, and plan for additional phases. rte.ie/news/ireland/2…

The chair of the DCC mobility committee, Green Party councillor Janet Horner, told The Journal the RSA was "an absolute sham of an organisation" that should be abolished.  jrnl.ie/6806587

Vibrant campaign for reduced speeds and better motorist behaviour on Ballyhooly Rd & Summer Hill. Limits were to drop to 30km/h — legislation even passed. Now it’s being rolled back, and neighbourhoods fear being treated like main roads.

We’ve read the NDP Review and we’re amazed how a document whose sole function is to lay out funding commitments, can be so non-committal about what it’s funding €24.33b in funding for transport & only €2b is explained No mention of Dart+, Luas, or BusConnects 🤷
