The MacCurtain Street Public Transport Improvement Scheme aims to support economic activity and enhance access to the city centre through significantly improved options for walking, cycling and public transport.
Under the scheme, the public realm is being improved and new pedestrian and cycle facilities being constructed. Revised traffic arrangements are now implemented on the city quays and as work progresses further traffic arrangements will be put in place on MacCurtain Street and adjoining streets to make the area more accommodating for shoppers, pedestrians, and cyclists.
The Cork City Council scheme, funded by the National Transport Authority, is an integral part of the transition to a more sustainable transport system in Cork.
