CONTRACTS have been signed by Cork County Council for the much-anticipated development of a new public ‘pocket park’ on a derelict site in the heart of the North Cork village of Ballydesmond.
A commitment by Transport Infrastructure Ireland to build a relief road around the centre of Charleville following two fatal road accidents in which elderly pedestrians were killed was delivered in a dramatic intervention when the tragedies were raised during Monday’s meeting of Cork County Council.
THE second death of a pedestrian in Charleville in as many weeks has once again highlighted what a local Cork County Coincillor has said was the “urgent need” for new traffic calming measures along the town’s busy Main Street.
