Libor Campas

Summary of Submission and Observation:

• The CMATS baseline of 1% and target of 4% is very low and should not be referenced in the City Development Plan. • Most residential areas in Cork can be reached from the city center on a bicycle within 20 minutes. • This gives Cork a great opportunity to have a more ambitious target between 13-20% mode share. • Support for the Lee to Sea cycle way • Safe pedestrian/cycle access from Togher/Ballyphehane to Tramore Valley Park(along Togher river) is a missing link for safe commuting between the west part of the city and Douglas. • Disconnected greenway from Lee Fields to Murphy's farm at Model Farm Road. • Safest route from the Blarney Street area to the College road area via Mardyke Bridge is closed from early evening • until late morning during winter months which is unacceptable for a commuting route especially for young children going to school in the morning.
