"Micheál Martin emphasized that Luas Cork will greatly enhance the connectivity of the city by transforming its public transport network to be more accessible."
"As Cork city anticipates a population growth of 50% to 60%, the proposed Luas Cork light-rail line is positioned as vital for future transport needs."
Micheál Martin launched an eight-week public consultation on the Luas Cork project, an 18km light-rail line linking key city destinations. The project aims to connect areas like MTU, UCC, and Cork University Hospital to a new public transport bridge and cycling infrastructure, addressing future transport demands as Cork's population is expected to grow significantly. Projected costs range from â¬1bn to â¬2bn, and the line will facilitate increased passenger capacity, with plans for a park & ride in Ballincollig. Completion time remains unspecified as funding will depend on economic factors.
