Readers' Blog: We need to pick up pace in slowing cars down

Certain areas of the south-east of Cork City are to be designated 30km speed zones. This is welcome. Why was the ward excluded? Arguments appear to be that cul de sacs do not warrant a speed limit.

We still will have large areas of Blackrock, Mahon, Ballintemple, and Ballinlough with no special speed limits. From speaking with parents and families, cul de sacs are no stranger to speeding cars, and, therefore, there is heightened danger for children living in the estate.
