Engineers hired for radical overhaul of Cork city bus routes

The same company was appointed in 2017 to review Dublin’s bus network, with its recommendations set to be implemented this year. File picture.
Engineering teams have been hired to design a dozen core bus corridors (CBCs) and one orbital bus route in Cork city as part of one of the most radical overhauls of the city’s public transport system in decades.
And in a separate but linked move, public transport experts, Jarrett Walker & Associates, are set to review the city’s existing bus services — with a focus on how many buses operate where, when and how often - and to design an improved network.
