Regional Spatial and Economic Strategy for the Southern Region (RSES) and Cork Metropolitan Area Strategic Plan (MASP)
2.12 The Regional Spatial and Economic Strategy for the Southern Region (RSES) is a regional framework supporting Project Ireland 2040 programme for change. As a regional plan it ensures coordination between the NPF, the NDP and the Cork City Development Plan. The central themes of the RSES are place making, climate action and sustainable economic growth.
2.13 The RSES is based on a regional settlement hierarchy. The strategy contains the Cork Metropolitan Area Strategic Plan (MASP) which provides a guide for investment and sustainable development across the Cork Metropolitan Area up to 2031. The MASP reinforces Cork City’s role as an international centre of scale to complement Dublin, targeting 50-60% population growth by 2040.
