Bad road, good address? Cork's Douglas Road homes on the up and up

As the main Douglas Road in Cork's suburbs lets itself down, a number of family homes along the same stretch are on the up and up.

The quality of a long stretch of the main Douglas Road in Cork’s suburbs might appear to be going down the swanee (or, at least down the drains,) due to potholes and undulations, but conversely at least, as the road lets itself down, a number of family homes along the same stretch are on the up and up, rising up to new heights.

It’s highly likely that the pothole issue got raised with more than a few general election candidates over the last few weeks run-up to tomorrow’s ‘Day of Reckoning’, even if it wasn’t quite the most pressing of issues on the broader, national radar, but the state of the road is notable given the way cars veer and slalom along and around the deeper recesses.
