Cork’s population is set to grow across the city and county over the coming years, and national plans have focused on making the Rebel County a viable alternative to Dublin with plans for investment, jobs growth, housing developments and amenity enhancements all to the fore.
With government plans to address housing deficits and provide employment opportunities, invest in and upgrade the Port of Cork, increase health facilities and services, and expand educational institutes in Cork, the aim is to build a brighter future for the region.
