Cork's transport strategy will take a significant leap forward next month as engineering design teams to develop the city's bus network to carry almost 50,000 passengers per hour at peak times will be issued.
Specialist engineering teams will be also appointed next month to undertake route analysis and develop designs for the proposed light rail line from Ballincollig to Mahon. A major scaling up of cycling investment is also planned over the next five years, according to the National Transport Authority, which has briefed city councillors on plans.
