Exhibits on flood-risk areas and proposals in Cork

Three major exhibitions are to be held in Cork this week dealing with the potential for flooding in a number of areas and what measures can be taken to mitigate against it.

The Office of Public Works (OPW) and its consulting engineers, Mott MacDonald, will host the public exhibitions at The Hibernian Hotel, Mallow this afternoon, County Hall on Wednesday and the public library in Skibbereen on Thursday.

The exhibitions will be open each day from 2.30pm to 7.30pm and members of the public in flood-risk areas are being asked to attend.
