FIANNA Fáil councillor Kenneth O’Flynn has expressed his opposition regarding proposals by Cork City Council to introduce 30km/h speed limit within areas of the city centre.
Cllr O’Flynn said, “I am totally opposed to any moves by the Council to try and slow down traffic in the City Centre. I agree with reservations of the business community in the City that this will only further alienate people and give them yet another excuse to do their shopping in the suburbs.”
The plan which proposes to bring down the speed limit is at present being proposed for Patrick Street, Oliver Plunkett Street and all existing side streets off them, many of which are already pedestrianised during the day however City Council have not ruled out extending these plans to Grand Parade and South Mall.
