@SoDak45 @CorkCyclingCrew Lack of constant paths on both sides of the road is so frustrating.
Some of the places you have to cross donโt have any lights to cross either so you have to keep legging it back and forth.

@Kennorth14@anluandunne@greenparty_ie@greens_kerry@cyclistie@EuCyclistsFed If you're worried about the children encourage more segregated cycle lanes, and reducing road speeds to 30km/h on shared roads.
Just like the Netherlands has done.
They had a whole campaign called "Stop Child Murder" to encourage the above:

@aheadbettertime @anluandunne@greenparty_ie@greens_kerry@cyclistie@EuCyclistsFed It doesn't need to be for everyone.
It's just one part of the solution to reducing traffic congestion & emissions, and increasing active mobility.
Reducing traffic benefits those who drive.
Cycle lanes also benefit those who e-scoot and use mobility scooters (lots of elderly)
We need a scheme that will enable lower income families to opt for an e-cargo bikes too.
More generally we need a scheme that pensioners, students, or unwaged people can access to help them to purchase bikes/ebikes.

@Daynnite75@cyclistie Many families replace their second car with one of these cargo bikes.
They are way less expensive then purchasing & maintaining a car.
This is a doubling in supports under the Bike to Work scheme for those who want an alternative EV, an e-cargo.

Next step is to broaden BtoW
I'm delighted to hear that 'An Irish Atlantic Rainforest' has entered the Irish hardback bestseller list at Number 3!!!

๐ซ๐ While @corkcitycouncil may not have promoted or pushed #CarFreeDay for another year running, we want to see your snaps from around Cork of your experiences be it on foot, train, bus or bicycle. #CorkCarFreeDay
Having troubles at the new traffic lights on Half Moon Lane? Try rolling your wheels over along one of edges of the sensor loop. Leave a reply if it still doesn't work for you!๐ฑ

PS: This trick works on a few more traffic lights in Cork. Not all, but definitely a few more!
