Skehard Road, (Phase 3) Church road junction to CSO Junction public consultation.

In 2014 Cork City Council commissioned a transportation assessment for the South East of the City. The assessment, titled: “Cork South East Strategic Transport Corridors” identified deficiencies along the current road network and suggested a package of infrastructural projects aimed at addressing these deficiencies.  Each project was evaluated using a number of criteria and a priority list for investment was established.

The “Skehard Road Phase 3, Church Road to CSO/Mahon Link Road Project” was identified as a key project in the promotion of sustainable transportation. The project will provide significantly improved facilities for bus users, cyclists, pedestrians and motorist along Skehard Rd. It also forms part of the overall plans to address congestion for the surrounding area.
