You'd be waiting 40+ mins somedays for a supposed 15-min frequency service, and 4 buses turn up together in a convoy. Such a shame because it adds massively to the already bad traffic jams there each morning and evening.
Cork City Planning wrote: Permission for alterations to 4 no. residential over ground floor blocks containing 216 no. 'Build-to-Rent' units as permitted under TP 17/37763 as part of the redevelopment of a site at Horgan's Quay, Railway Street, Lower Glanmire Road, Cork as a mixed use development. The proposed alterations include modifications to the internal and external configuration of the permitted residential development to provide for a single conventional apartment building ranging in height from 7 to 10m floors over ground floor and which is an increase in height from the 6 to 10 floors over ground floor permitted. At ground floor level, changes will include the relocation of the cre to the corner of Railway Street and Alfred Street and an increase in its size from 189m2 to 206m2, reduction in the area afforded to ancillary ESB Station, switch rooms, meter rooms, and ancillary service areas to accommodate an increase in facilities management and ancillary amenities for the residents of 400m2, reorganisation, relocation and increase in area of the 5 no. retail units from 1,139m2 to 1,265m2. The alterations to the ground floor also make provision for a decrease in the number of parking spaces and for the increase and relocation of bicycle parking. At upper levels it is proposed to amalgamate the 4 no. residential blocks into a single apartment building and internal alterations will result in an increase of 86 no. apartments to a total of 302 apartments. Alterations to the Old Railway Station (Station Master's Building) includes its refurbishment, partial demolition and change of use to provide for ancillary amenities for the residents of the residential building. The proposed development consists of the carrying out of works to a protected structure (PS178) Old Railway Station (Station Master's Building).
