A ‘quiet way’ corridor has been approved as part of a major scheme to improve cycling infrastructure on the northside of Cork city.

In Glanmire, a bike and pedestrian route linking Riverstown village to Glanmire Community School via Hazelwood Road, with a section along the Aldi link road avoiding controversial proposals through Dooley’s Lane, has also been approved.
