Re: Re: Look at de state of Cork, like!

Hey Corkdude- regarding water quality: recent tests suggest the water coming out of the new treatment plant in Little Island is cleaner than the water upstream before it comes into the city: the color of the water is related to agricultural pollution and not to sewage. So blame the farmers I say!
Its obvious now that plans do need to be put into place to build public better access to the river: for a start, the city could extend the possiblities of cafe-culture from the recently renovated pavements by renting out river barges to local pubs and restaurents – such as at the North Mall – a strategy used very successfully in many European cities.
