Pedestrian and cycle works planned for roads linking Cork city to airport and Douglas

It is hoped that the works, in association with the construction of a €4.3m pedestrian and cycling bridge from Frankfield over the N40 South Ring Road to Tramore Valley Park, will help ease traffic jams

Two key arterial roads in Cork city are in line for safety works and active travel upgrades over the coming months.

The proposals for the roads which connect the city with the airport, Frankfield, Grange and Douglas include upgrades to pedestrian and cycling facilities on the Airport Hill, close to the Kinsale Road roundabout, as well as new plans for active travel measures on the Frankfield/Grange road, which also leads to the roundabout.
