Hundreds of trees for park under €50k landscaping scheme

Hundreds of trees will be planted in one of Cork’s largest parks as part of a €50,000 landscaping scheme.

Cork County Council outlined the work in Ballincollig Regional Park in response to criticism from some park users after a major tree-felling operation.

Separately, the council confirmed that it plans to appoint consultants soon to assess the park’s historic weir, which collapsed last month.
