Transport solutions sought for Cork's growing Little Island
A raft of suggestions, including the introduction of flexitime, the development of new slip roads, and the introduction of bike sharing and car pooling, have also been put forward in a bid to ease chronic traffic congestion in Little Island, on the outskirts of Cork city — home to about 1,000 companies employing around 16,000 people — and where some workers regularly experience delays of up to 40 minutes coming to and from work.
It follows the publication of the findings of a major traffic survey in the area conducted by Little Island Business Association (LIBA), with advice from Kevin Burke, a senior transport planner in London.
