    I'm not blaming any one person, honestly. There's a wider cultural issue.
    The Council's actions and attitudes are just a symptom of a much deeper malaise. A topic for a different thread of course.

    And I must also say that I think that this bridge (even though I expect a 1.5m wide hack-job) will be a very big help.

    This confuses me, if the council need extra room for footpaths why not take it from the council owned property on the direct opposite side of the road?

    Not to be a negative nelly but nothing about this entire process has made sense. Also those trees behind the Christ King fence should get their affairs in order...

    Nice gesture by the school. It amazes me that this still hasn't been sorted out as that entrance is on the masterplan that the council published in 2012! Did they think it was just going to magically appear one day or something? Having said that there was no problem opening the pedestrian entrance when the parkrun was on there. In case people have forgotten that was stopped as it was too popular :(

    Saw a track excavator at the gate this evening and a roadworks sign at the dosco estate entrance. Is it finally happening?

    Works start Monday. Should take a week to sort out Half Moon Lane.

    That's what I heard thru the p+p club last weekend anyway.

    No access via the lane before 6pm each day next week. Special access via the park itself while works ongoing.

    Great news. How no pedestrian entrance there got through the design/planning stages is beyond me

    Stop & Go all this week due to the junction upgrade on south Douglas road, 800 - 1800.

    Well that took a while but thankfully it's open (unofficially).

    A friend on annual leave walked it today and sent me some photos. Looks great!! Big credit to the City Council here.


    Next the section of South Douglas Road between Half Moon Lane and Capwell Road (extremely wide) could do with a two way cycle lane, then works on Capwell Road to make it suitable for cyclists to connect to the Southern Road cycle lane into town

    Pedestrian/cycle access from Blackash is badly needed too. Needs another bridge I guess.

    The N27 and N40, while both amazing for Cork car transport, have done a lot to damage the connectivity by foot to different areas of the city southside. Hopefully this new bridge is just the start of works to address that

    Think that one is on the cards too.
