Michael Moynihan: Lack of road markings in Cork is a hazard — and a message that the city doesn’t care

From chaotic junctions to unclear lanes, faded road markings are turning Cork’s streets into everyday obstacle courses

Kudos to the people who got the big pot of paint down from the top shelf in the shed to paint the road markings at the intersection at the Michael Collins Bridge and Penrose Quay, but there are plenty of other places in the city which would do with some attention.

I see the big pot of paint has been taken out of the shed in City Hall.

My evidence? The intersection at the Michael Collins Bridge and Penrose Quay was recently repainted, bright white lines delineating traffic routes and a sparkling new yellow box laid down to warn drivers.
