    • Redevelop North Quays - a total eyesore
    • More bridges or tunnels - Clock Tower to North Quays (pedestrian), Reginalds Tower to Ferrybank (and make Quays one way), Ardkeen to Ross Road (to complete ring road)
    • More Public Transport - lots more - with Bus Lanes, rail links improved etc
    • Lose Car Parks on the Quay - turn it into a promenade

    Increase the speed limit on the outer ring road.

    Leave the Carrickpherish Road go 6 months to a year without being dug up. Really taking the pi$$ now at this stage. It's only open less than 3 years and sestroyed with patches where the tar has either sunk or is raised higher than the road.

    Not gonna happen, but there's so many estates with empty or for sale houses that have never been lived in, can't these be sold before more new developments are built? Or bought by the Corporation for affordable housing/shared ownership purposes?

    Street Art! Sculptures!
    I've lived in several cities in my life - moved to Waterford 2 years ago and cannot get over the lack of street art in Waterford.
    Even Kilkenny has more!!

    Get the culture right and all else will follow - hearts and minds.

    And get rid of those car parks along the quays - put in boardwalks, trees, greenery, coffee kiosks. - it would change the atmosphere in the city
