Dutch ‘future-proofing’ of Cork flood relief plan proposed

That call came after hundreds of people formed a human chain in Cork City over the weekend and boats gathered on the River Lee in protest against the Office of Public Works’ (OPW) anti-flooding plans for the city.
Councillor Tim Brosnan, who is not associated with the Save Cork City campaign, expressed concerns that the OPW is “in a mad rush to pour concrete everywhere” and that the plans could be “too short-term in outlook”.
