Reply To: Look at de state of Cork, like!

Cork County Hall is a symbol of Cork and the Council more specifically. It encompasses vast land holdings and is established along a major suburban corridor in the form of Carrigrohane Straight – it wouldn’t have made economic sense to relocate to a new location along the Midelton Corridor. Plus, at the time of planning, the Midelton Railway hadn’t been greenlit and the Council couldn’t wait around for a grant to be finally funded while their offices were wasting away. Cork County Hall is well served by public transport and easily accessible on most major routes (South Ring N25, Carrigrohane Straight, Ballincollig By-Pass, Western Road etc) – the Council should promote increase public transport along among its employees and ‘visitors’ – a dedicated green-route has been recently established nearby.
