Traffic experts to tackle logjams

Eoin English

Traffic experts from four cities, including Cork, who are involved in the Multi Initiative for Rationalised Accessibility and Clean Liveable Environments (MIRACLES) project, are due to arrive in the city next week for a two-day conference.

They will meet with officials from Barcelona, Winchester and Rome, notorious for its crazy drivers, chaotic traffic jams and rush-hour bottlenecks, to swap ideas on how best to tackle traffic problems.
