So in planning we’re constantly encouraging densification, particularly in our urban areas. However, in light of #COVID19’s global spread, high density areas are obviously at a higher risk of seeing further spread? /1

This is the city of Timgad in Algeria, built by the Romans nearly 2,000 years ago.

Though the grid plan might seem like a modern invention, it's ancient.

From the Aztecs to the Egyptians, from Greece to China to the USA, here's why your city is (probably) built as a grid...

Hi vis for safety. I guess it’s a shield to protect against those 1 - 3 tonne mechanically propelled metal blocks rolling around the place…seems legit 👀

We are sad to let you know of the passing of our big-hearted, kind and inspirational friend and colleague Dr Will Brady. His larger-than-life attitude, enthusiasm and infectious good humour touched everyone that came across him. He will be deeply missed. May he rest in peace.

[IPI Cork Branch @IPICork]

Very sad to hear the amazing Dr Will Brady has passed away. Will was a great teacher, an enthusiastic planner and a very special person. He will be missed by all who knew him. Our deepest sympathies to his family, friends, colleagues and students @PlanningUCC RIP Will.

Happening right now @UCDLibrary, hundreds if not thousands of books and journals being thrown directly into a bin lorry. Some will counterargue that many volumes, especially journals, are now superceded by digital editions. However, lots of older valuable books being tossed. A🧵:

Delighted to have been asked back to present for @CareersUCC this morning. Looking forward to it getting back to @UCC , even if it is virtually 👍🏻

[Rory O'Donnell @rua101]

@eircare is it possible to message about an issue?

[Rory O'Donnell @rua101]

@IrishTimesHelp received a copy of the Irish Examiner this morning rather than the weekend edition of the Time, a mistake surely?

So @corkcitycouncil seem to be very forward thinking in planting “robotic trees”. However, if a member of the public wants to make a submission on a planning application it still has to be done IN WRITING - somebody please tell me I’m wrong 😂
